Bylaw Amendment Update
The recent bylaw amendment, which proposed the allowance of electronic voting in co-op elections, passed by a wide margin. A total of 259 members voted in favor of the amendment, and 9 voted against it. Thank you to all who took the time to vote.
The amended bylaw (with the additions in bold) will read:
Section 4. Voting. The Board of Directors may authorize a mail ballot or voting by electronic means for voting on all matters that members are entitled to vote upon, including voting to elect directors. If authorized, mail ballots or ballots for voting by electronic means shall be sent to all members with the notice of a meeting. If a ballot is received on or before the date of the meeting, it shall be accepted and counted. There shall be no proxy voting. Voting by electronic means requires that the association be able to authenticate that it is the cooperative member who is casting the vote.
