Guest Peter Deg Posted July 22, 2021 at 09:02 PM Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 at 09:02 PM A motion was made and adopted that is unclear. The director was making $50,000 and the motion was to "increase the salary by .75% to $50,875". The problem is that a .75% increase would be $50,375. This happened at the annual members meeting. The members are the body that must approve all changes in compensation for the executive director. Nobody caught it at the time. Is there anything that can be done besides calling another meeting of the members? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless and until the motion is amended by the membership for clarity, I suppose the board will have to interpret the motion as best as it can. So the board will need to make its best guess as to which of the numbers in the motion was the error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
