Guest John Posted January 11, 2021 at 12:08 AM Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 at 12:08 AM 5 voting members. One recuses. Motion for approval fails on 2-2 tie. Can the business item or motion be renewed at another session / meeting? Does member of prevailing party have to be the one to add to agenda? Does member of prevailing party have to be the one to make the motion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Puzzling Posted January 11, 2021 at 11:28 AM Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 at 11:28 AM Just an addition to Mr Martins post. Only for reconsidering at the same meeting. For this it is needed that the member who want to reconsider the question had to be on the prevailing side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest John Posted January 11, 2021 at 02:16 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 at 02:16 PM Thank you both! Mr. Martin, any chance you have a page number or section you can send me to in the 12th addition to reference? Article 38 has Renewal of Motions, but having a hard time specifically finding this to reference. I appreciate you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're referring to any member being allowed to make the motion again see the first sentence in 38:1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest John Posted January 11, 2021 at 10:32 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 at 10:32 PM Sentence 38.1 - "If a motion is made and disposed of without being adopted, and is later allowed to come before the assembly after being made again by any member in essentially the same connection, the motion is to be renewed" What is the interpretation of "Member in essentially the same connection" does this mean prevailing party?

Atul Kapur Posted January 11, 2021 at 10:48 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 at 10:48 PM 11 minutes ago, Guest John said: does this mean prevailing party? No. First, you are missing a word: "If a motion is made and disposed of without being adopted, and is later allowed to come before the assembly after being made again by any member in essentially the same connection, the motion is said to be renewed." The sentence is a definition of renewal. Second, the phrase "in essentially the same connection" does not apply to the member making the motion but to the motion itself. It's describing whether the motion is being moved in "essentially the same connection." The requirement that a motion can only be moved by someone on the prevailing side applies to Reconsider, not to renewal, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
