Quest Posted September 23, 2024 at 07:00 PM Report Share Posted September 23, 2024 at 07:00 PM A board member intends to accuse president of conflict of interest in order to rally a vote to remove. Our bylaws simply state 3/4ths vote required but have no stated procedure for handling accusations. I suspect the effort is to push for a vote based solely on accusation. Please advise Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please advise If your bylaws simply state that a 3/4 vote is required for removal, and nothing further, then a motion to remove would be handled the same way as any other motion - the assembly will debate the merits of the motion, and ultimately vote on it. You seem to suggest, from the topic's title, that you desire some sort of investigation into these accusations before the board votes on removal. Under the bylaws as you have stated them, no investigation is required, but certainly the board could refer this matter to an investigative committee appointed for this purpose if it wishes to do so. The motion to Commit or Refer requires a majority vote for adoption. Edited September 23, 2024 at 09:06 PM by Josh Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
