[arrl-odv:30698] Updated motions for meeting
After the July Board meeting it was suggested that I break my original Ritz 1 motion into two motions; one to confirm that Board members have the right to attend Standing Committee meetings as guests, (is currently implied, but not stated), and a new second motion that deals with how travel expenses for Director guests at these meetings is to be handled. Regarding the second motion, I made travel reimbursement for participation at Standing Committee (SC) meetings as a guest consistent with being a guest at a Executive Committee (EC) meeting, which is currently funded from Division accounts per existing documentation noted in the Motion. Officers and Vice Directors are now not included in this, which was one of the concerns originally brought forth by those concerned of increased costs. Directors will still be limited to attending one such meeting a year, now either a EC or a SC meeting, so the cost impact should be minimal. I hope this satisfies those with cost concerns. Those new and revised motions are now with Dee and Carla for submission to DropBox. On a separate note, I was also going to put together another new motion this meeting to charge the Legal Structure Review Committee, (LSRC), with taking a critical look at ALL of our ARRL governance documents for consistency with current CT laws, and importantly, for consistency with each other, removing overlaps outdated policies, and providing clarity on those policies and rules that are ambiguous. I have been asked by a member of the committee to defer this effort for now, and wait for the new CEO to get on board. (The ARRL CEO is the chair for the LSRC). I'd like to know what others here think of this tasking. I may tackle the motion in January, after our new CEO is broken in. ;-) 73; Mike W7VO
Mike: I’m all for waiting for the new CEO to get here before you task the Committee. 😊 73, Barry, N1VXY From: arrl-odv <arrl-odv-bounces@reflector.arrl.org> On Behalf Of Michael Ritz Sent: Wednesday, August 12, 2020 2:48 PM To: arrl-odv <arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org> Subject: [arrl-odv:30698] Updated motions for meeting After the July Board meeting it was suggested that I break my original Ritz 1 motion into two motions; one to confirm that Board members have the right to attend Standing Committee meetings as guests, (is currently implied, but not stated), and a new second motion that deals with how travel expenses for Director guests at these meetings is to be handled.

I can sense that Barry is all too eager to return to the lovely world of retirement. :D Ria N2RJ On Wed, 12 Aug 2020 at 14:57, Shelley, Barry, N1VXY (CEO) <bshelley@arrl.org> wrote:
