'''''Submitted for Vote 3 August, 2010'''''
===Language===
The President, acting in the best interest of Pumping Station: One, is hereby authorized at the discretion of the board to enter contractual agreements on behalf of Pumping Station: One where no liability or financial commitment is assumed by the organization.  Agreements which include a clause placing risk on the organization such as fines for breach of contract or claims to property as recourse, for example, are not eligible to be approved by the board.

The President is strongly encouraged to continue consulting with the membership on such issues, but will not require full member approval. This motion is intended to expedite business operations where no risk is assumed.

This motion, upon approval will amend the bylaws by classifying the above as a vote assigned to the Board of Directors and empower the office of the President accordingly.
