is correct that the Board elects itself. If the corporation doesn’t
have “members”, which Evergreen did not want, then the board elects
itself
as a nonprofit has no shareholders. It does seem unusual, but the
self-perpetuating board is how many nonprofits function. MOBIUS is
different as it has members.</span><br><br></li><li>Section 3.3 has "Directors participating maysimu
ltaneously hear each other during the meeting." Does this mean it has
to be auditory (eg. Phone, Web Conferencing, or in person) or can we use
IRC? Would all votes be invalid in IRC?<br><br><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:rgb(31,73,125)">This
is what we discussed in our conference call. For the one, official
meeting that the board has each year, everyone has to be “present” and
able
to hear each other at the same time. This is a statutory requirement
in Missouri (and most states). This meeting could be accomplished at
the annual convention with anyone unable to attend in person calling
in. For that official meeting, it cannot be done
via chat room. Other, unofficial meetings can be held via the chat
room. However, any “votes” should be memorialized in a separate,
written resolution signed by the board of directors.</span><br><br></li><li>Our current rules of governance has a purpose and responsibility section, can we include something like this in Article I?</li></ol></div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><br><div dir="ltr" style="margin-left:0pt"><table style="border:none;border-collapse:collapse"><colgroup><col width="156"><col width="340"></colgroup><tbody><tr style="height:0pt"><td style="border-right:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.9871999999999999;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;text-align:center"><a href="http://www.cwmars.org" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap"><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/C1fNrKOLEXFs-jfAIXQIMqbKqVBCJrBceOenfgotAcJE6XtZ2ZeeTYFkyfir63-HfzjX6q5zhBQWiO5RZk2tYnWzJ1_rjAADAH4nCmiuhNJuoG8HZLq7MBW-pAU4R9ScKcCybdVO" style="border:none" width="132" height="99"></span></a></p></td><td style="border-left:solid #000000 0.5pt;vertical-align:top;padding:5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.9871999999999999;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap">Tim Spindler | Executive Director | CW MARS</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.9871999999999999;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap"><a href="mailto:tspindler@cwmars.org" target="_blank">tspindler@cwmars.org</a> | 508-755-3323 x120</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.9871999999999999;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><a href="http://www.cwmars.org/" style="text-decoration:none" target="_blank"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;color:#1155cc;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:underline;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap">http://www.cwmars.org</span></a></p></td></tr></tbody></table></div><br><font size="2"><span style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><span><span></span></span></span><span style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><span><span></span></span></span></font><font size="1"><span style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif"><span><span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.656;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt"><span style="vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap"><br></span></p></span></span></span></font></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
