Rev. Hunter Posted July 21, 2023 at 05:18 PM Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 at 05:18 PM What is the procedure for amending a budget? Can amendment be made after the motion to adopt the budget has been made or does the budget need to be adopted and then amendments are proposed?

Gary Novosielski Posted July 24, 2023 at 04:51 PM Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 at 04:51 PM While the budget is pending and being debated prior to adoption, the normal amendment process outlined in RONR (12th ed.) §12 applies, as with any main motion. Amendments require a second, are debatable, and need a majority vote to be agreed to. Once the budget has been adopted, things change. In order to make changes later, the motion to Amend Something Previously Adopted, §35, applies, which requires any one of: a two-thirds vote; a majority of the entire membership; or, with previous notice, a majority vote.
