PROCEDURES

 

The Committee overseeing Association governance may create a task force to manage the following tasks:

 

1.    Unless otherwise required to ensure the Association may undertake activities, the Bylaws of the Association will be reviewed once every 5 years to determine if revisions are required to comply with any legal requirements of the Association.

 

2.    If it is anticipated that the Bylaws will be revised, the review may need to include the Articles of Incorporation to determine whether any of the revisions has an impact on the Articles.

 

3.    As appropriate, review the recommended revisions to the Bylaws with the Association’s legal counsel prior to presenting them to the Board.

4.    Recommended revisions to the Bylaws should be submitted as an agenda item for the next in-person regular Board meeting at which they first will be presented for Board consideration.  (See POL 1-010 for procedures on submitting agenda items to the Board.)

5.     A two-thirds vote of the Board of Directors during a meeting is required for adoption of any proposed amendment to the Bylaws.

6.     The approved Bylaws will be posted on the Association web site.

 

The Bylaws of ARMA International are attached as Exhibit A.
