Jim Anderson Posted November 21, 2023 at 08:55 PM Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 at 08:55 PM We are a small fraternal organization and our Board operates under RONR Small Board Rules. We allow non-Board members to attend our Board meetings. When a member (not a Board member) attends a meeting of the Board and has a grievance to report, can the non-Board member request his letter describing grievance be placed in the minutes of the Board meeting?

Yes, the "guest" may request that his letter be included in the minutes, but it is up to the board to decide whether to do so. Also, such a letter might more appropriately just be kept on file by the secretary. The minutes could state that a letter submitted by the guest regarding (topic) was placed on file. The minutes are normally a record of what was done, not what was said, at a meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
