NCBC By-laws
During the past year, the NCBC By-laws committee has been hard at work editing the By-laws to bring them current. Please review the attached red-lined pdf version of proposed changes. For those of you not used to working with red-lines, text with a line through it is recommended for deletion, while underlined text is recommended for addition.
Most of the changes are for style or grammar, however a few changes are recommended to improve the NCBC structure or other significant reasons. Here's an outline of the reasons for those changes:
- Section 5.8 - Adds an auditing duty for the Treasurer.
- Section 5.10/6.6 - Specifies which members can be Officers and addresses retiring Officers.
- Section 7.3 - Defines appointment process and terms of service for Staff to the Board.
- Section 7.6 - Adds Impact Editor to Staff of the Board.
- Section 8 - Changes election timeframes.
Voting on the new By-laws will happen during the Business Meeting Thursday at the Conference.
