to Suspend a meeting

[Guest H.Wm.Mountcastle]

Meetings are not "suspended".

They're called to order (they begin) and they're adjourned (they end). There can be a BRIEF intermission (a "recess") if, for example, you run out of beer.

You can only vote during the me"

[Guest Tyrone Kalogeresis]

Let me start anew here. The President of my dog club calls the meeting to order can she ask for a motion the dispense with the regular meeting and then proceed to voting of new club members?"

[Guest Nancy N.]

Looking at p. 255 - 256, probably not, as is. But the assembly could choose to take up the particular matter, like voting on new members, and then choose to adjourn. For example."
