As background to the agenda item for next Saturday’s Community Meeting, below are extracts from the relevant rules, which are currently not applied in our meetings:

ATTENDANCE AND VOTING AT GENERAL MEETINGS

60. (b)  A member of the co-operative is not entitled to vote at a meeting of the co-operative:    (i)  if the person is not an active member of the co-operative.

 

ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP PROVISION

14. In accordance with Part 6 of the Act:   (b)  a member shall pay by the due date all accounts for annual subscriptions, levies, fees, fines and charges provided for in these rules and the Co-op’s by- laws in order to establish active membership of the Co-operative.

One thought on “Inactive Members & Voting

  1. So……….resolutions have been passed before with inactive members voting? ( I personally dont mind this ) although if we are spiralling down the path of crossing the ‘t’ s and dotting the ‘i’s, I think we have just happened upon a veritable pandoras box of issues…….
