After a 30-day review and comment period during which our proposed 2022 C&B was made available to all members, our general membership approved of both by unanimous vote at our July 23 meeting. This is the first full revision of our C&B since 2004 and features a much needed re-organization of what goes where (many of the old Cs have been moved to the new Bs), a resolution of errors and ambiguities (we don't, for example, operate under a 501(c)4), and a trimming-away of unrealistic provisions (there is no way, for example, that a club of our modest size can expect to maintain 15 standing committees).
It took two months of consulting, comparing, writing, and revising for the ad hoc C&B revision committee to arrive at what we think is a more streamlined and consistent governing document. One that is much more in line with how we actually operate (take a look, for example, at our modified approach to Roberts Rules of Order). The docs are posted on our Member Essentials page for all of our reference needs. Go check ʻem, go.
