According to my notes, Minute 28 about e-signatures was merely withdrawn, thus no vote was taken. I'd suggest we revise the end of the first sentence in Minute 28 to read, ".... of electronic signatures, and the motion was withdrawn." The next two sentences can be deleted. Also, "Council" needs to be changed to "Counsel" in the first sentence.

I’ve never seen something like this in the minutes. Not that I mind that those reading see how the sausage is made but I’m interested in the record reflecting what actually happened.

It followed that Barry promised he would educate staff regarding the acceptance of e-signatures, so the motion was deemed not necessary and was pulled. There was no actual vote to pull the motion, but maybe it should be documented exactly what did happen for the record? On minute 29, my motion to amend By-Law 18 to be consistent with the Election Rules as modified in January passed 15-0, so was a roll-call vote necessary? I guess the question is: Do all By-Law changes require a roll-call vote even those unanimously passed? Great job, Carla! 73; Mike W7VO On 09/01/2020 12:05 PM Pereira, Carla, KC1HSX <cpereira@arrl.org> wrote: Dear Members of the ODV: Attached is the completed draft of the minutes for the 2nd Board Meeting, combining the July and August sessions.
