Proposed Bylaws Change

At the Annual meeting we will be voting on a revision to our bylaws.  We want to change the timing of notification of board elections from 60 to 30 days.  This will give it the same timing as notifications of proposed bylaws changes, so that we can send one notice to members instead of two! You can find the text of the proposed bylaws revision by clicking on <Read More>.

Wording to be changed is in red font.  Proposed wording is in bold red font.
