cologma54 Posted January 5, 2011 at 09:26 PM Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 at 09:26 PM Our water board recently held a recall election and the president was recalled and another person elected to the board. At the board meeting - one week later - 2 people were nominated to fill the president's seat. The newly elected member tried to second the nomination and was told he wasn't eligible as a voting member until the election was ratified. My question is twofold - was this new member ineligible? And, should the nomination of the new president have waited until a full board was available for the vote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your rules may vary.As long as a quorum was present, the board was free to conduct business.And nominations don't need a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
