Rob motioned and Glenn seconded a motion to propose new wording to the membership. Passed unanimously. Dave will send the notice to the membership.
The old language is:
This constitution may be amended at any regularly scheduled meeting or at a special meeting upon two-thirds vote of the members present, providing twenty-one days previous notice of proposed amendment (and of the meeting if it is a special meeting). Publication must be in writing and provided to all persons via the FFBC Yahoo! Group.
Change to the following:
This constitution may be amended at any regularly scheduled meeting or at a special meeting upon two-thirds vote of the members in good standing present. Twenty-one days previous notice of the proposed amendment (and of the meeting if it is a special meeting) must be provided to club members in writing through the electronic messaging service.
Safety Discussion
Dennis will craft a statement regarding safety to be added to the Sign in sheets. Basically it will say that each rider is responsible for their own riding behavior, knowing safe riding techniques and following safe group riding practices.
