Amy Posted January 21, 2021 at 04:38 AM Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 at 04:38 AM Not sure if this is a question that can be answered here... Our bylaws state that Membership will be based on a calendar year and renewals are due prior to January 31st each year. A member has said that they are not planning to renew their membership. Does that constitute a resignation? A resignation would go into effect immediately, whereas a Non-payment of Dues, per the bylaws, would terminate if the membership renewal form and applicable fees are not submitted within 30 days of the date on which they become due. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Novosielski Posted January 21, 2021 at 05:08 AM Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 at 05:08 AM Saying that you don't plan to renew is not a resignation. Besides, you can always change you mind and renew anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Elsman Posted January 21, 2021 at 03:02 PM Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 at 03:02 PM The plan to withdraw from the society by withholding renewal is not a resignation, and such a withdrawal is not "accepted" by the society, as would be necessary for a resignation. The "plan" is merely a polite notice that membership may be let to naturally lapse at the end of the term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
