=====Non-Voting Members===== | |||
Full Members have the option at any time to become Non-Voting Members, or thereafter to re-activate as a voting Full Member, by emailing our voting account (vote@pumpingstationone.org) or notifying the Board of Directors. Non-Voting Members will not be counted when calculating whether quorum has been reached. | |||
Full Members who have not attended a meeting or voted by proxy or in absentia for three consecutive months will automatically become Non-Voting Members until they re-activate by either voting or attending a meeting. Non-Voting Members who become Non-Voting by choice can only re-activate by emailing our voting account or by notifying the Board of Directors. As a convenience, Non-Voting Members *can* opt-in to voting for any issue without revoking their Non-Voting status. They will count toward quorum for any vote in which they participate. | |||
Board members are not eligible to become Non-Voting Members. Records of member attendance and voting will be maintained by the Secretary. [''This [[Quorum rule changes|non-voting provision]] added by a vote on [[Meeting Notes 03-22-2011|03-22-2011]].''] | |||
