Hello Jim et al; With regard to Minute 11). that issue was introducedas an election, which requires a nomination from the floor.A nomination was made and since there was a single candidatewith a pending contract renewal there was a vote with yes/novote. Ballots were distributed, collected by the teller committeeand counted. The revised minutes reflect that action of the body. Thank You 73, Kermit W9XA On Monday, February 3, 2020, 9:51:24 PM CST, James Tiemstra <k6jat@comcast.net> wrote: BOARD CONFIDENTIAL GA Carla, I apologize for the following tardy edits to the posted minutes: Minute 8: This should follow the pattern for an election, such as is reflected in Minute 20, not an up or down motion. Therefore, after ". . . by the tellers," it should read "with the following results: Mr. Roderick, 8; Mr. Tiemstra, 7. Whereupon . . . ." deleting "with 8 in favor and 7 against" at the end. Minute 11: This should follow the same pattern as Minute 8, reflecting vote totals, not "in favor" and "against." Minute 13: This was an up or down vote. If this is being treated as a personnel matter, it should be left as is. The vote count is not the type of information that is of any real use to our membership. Minute 15: The fourth sentence starting "Mr. Spinella noted . . . " should be deleted. It could constitute a waiver of the attorney-client privilege as to all matters discussed with counsel at the meeting. Minute 26: Only the first sentence should be retained for two reasons: first, the remainder of this paragraph contains another potential waiver of the attorney-client privilege, and second, should a contractual dispute arise with M&H, the balance of this paragraph also contains potentially damaging admissions. Minute 30: In the final sentence, the phrase "retain as much variance in versions" should be replaced with "not foreclose use of any variation". Then, the last word "possible" should become "discussed". Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. Nothing stated above constitutes a legal opinion or advice upon any matter as to which counsel for the League could or should be consulted. 73, Jim Tiemstra, K6JAT Pacific Division Director On February 3, 2020 at 8:54 AM "Pereira, Carla, KC1HSX" <cpereira@arrl.org> wrote: Dear Officers, Director and Vice Directors, Having received no further changes/suggestions to the draft Minutes in at least 48 hours, attached is the final draft of the Minutes of the 2020 Annual Board Meeting for your review.
