  1. All, Thank you for your responses. I am fairly new to the RONR concepts but trying to learn as much as I can to ensure I don't misspeak during the meetings.
  2. Gary, Thank you for your reply. Is there a reference in RONR can be used to answer this question?
  3. We had a Special Called Business Meeting convened. Meeting was called to order and Agenda was read. Member requested to read a statement into the official record as part of the meeting. Second member made a motion to move the stated agenda to the regularly scheduled business meeting for the following reasons: - meeting agenda was not announced at two consecutive meetings prior - agenda items to be voted on were in violation of the Constitution & Bylaws which stated those items must be carried out at Regularly scheduled business meeting. Our Bylaws state we will follow Roberts Rules of Order. Since the meeting was started and statement was read into the official record. Motion was made, seconded, an voted on to move the agenda to the regularly scheduled business meeting should meeting minutes be kept as part of the official record? Some argue that since the meeting agenda was ruled and voted on as out of order no meeting minutes should be kept. Others argue that since the meeting was called to order, agenda read on the floor, member read a statement into record, and motion was made and voted on minutes should be kept. I am currently reading RRofO looking for a reference that might cover this question. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
