Antoinette K. Posted June 23, 2020 at 04:45 PM Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 at 04:45 PM If the Chair is unable to fulfill their duty, i.e., they are absent due to illness or injury, can they delegate their authority to a non-Board member? Does it have to be in advance of the meeting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Katz Posted June 23, 2020 at 04:49 PM Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 at 04:49 PM Your bylaws should say who presides in the absence of the chair. If not, the vice president presides. If there is no vice president, the assembly elects a chair pro tem. In no circumstance does an absent presiding officer have the ability to unilaterally bind the assembly as to who presides.
