Hi,
The Board needs to review and approve proposed changes to our Bylaws before
they go to our membership at the Annual Membership meeting at our
conference.
Below is the change proposed to address the fact that our Treasurer no
longer needs to be bonded.
There is also a section in our manual regarding this, and we can make this
change by a vote of the board without membership vote.
It's a little confusing, but I can answer questions at our meeting.
Thanks,
Roberta
Article II

Current Bylaws language:

He/she shall be bonded. He/She shall see that regular financial statements
are prepared in accordance with recognized accounting principles and shall
report to the Board of Directors prior to each annual conference and may,
under the directions of the board, report to the full membership at any

Proposed change: (Remove sentence regarding bonding)
New language: 6.5 The treasurer shall be the chief financial officer of the
Chapter. He/She shall see that regular financial statements are prepared in
accordance with recognized accounting principles and shall report to the
Board of Directors prior to each annual conference and may, under the
directions of the board, report to the full membership at any annual
conference.
