At this point Chris is the only person who has been nominated and accepted and thus I will turn chairing the meeting over to him. Thank you Chris.
At this point my intention was to have the incoming governors vote so that the final two days of the meeting and any subsequent voting can be handled by the new president (the same as last year).
I did a bit of research and interpreted things differently, but it is entirely possibly I am wrong. Regardless I suppose you don't want to run for presidency? At this point voting is supposed to have...
Since the meeting started late I think its reasonable to extend the nomination/first two days of the meeting until 7 pm tonight, thus giving 48 hours for the first two days of the meeting. This will...
To be honest, I see no reason why he can't nominate. He would be excluded from the voting but I see no reason why his nomination would be invalid as he is a member in good standing. Additionally,...
Would the league presidents mind sending me the emails and names of the incoming governors?
Is anyone wishing to run for any of the executive positions? Also Brett are you willing to serve as treasurer again?
For a number of reasons I found myself unable to be as active as my previous term. However, the thing I was most concerned with (our tax filings) has been completed just recently and the figures are...
I am present
I've talked to a couple exec members about this and my interpretation is that discussion would be visible (as would voting) during and after the meeting. Since voting and discussion would be visible,...
Thank you very much for the nomination Chris. After much thought I will only accept the position if Fred McKim doesn't. I think Fred and Gordon are better candidates than myself. Gordon is bilingual...
Firstly thank you very much Chris for setting up the meeting and moderating it. Secondly thank you Brett for making yourself available and providing the documents which seemed to clear up a lot of...
The budget passes.
I agree completely, the decisions made by the president should be visible by all and he should be accountable for them. At least for the previous term and this upcoming term, I think we're doing a...
This is the reason why I wanted to avoid this sort of thing. I believe the website cost is for 5 years worth of website. This seems close to you're $70. As for the overdraft fee, I have no idea about...
Chris's idea certainly has merit and I believe the idea received support at the AGM. To be honest I'm against any price increase for chess memberships but I can certainly see his point. I'm...
I glanced over it and to me it had more errors than it was worth trying to rectify. I compiled a document in the format that was requested by Chris and others. Everyone is going to want something...
They absolutely were, however, the taxes were not filled and this time around we need to. Like I said a couple times in my post, I intend to cut the cheque when the taxes are filled and not before. I...
Not quite that simple since there's matters like equipment rentals, interest, grants (I mention these because they may be harder to break down, grants especially) but I'll send along some material...
Marcus,
If you wanted to start trying to put together such a spreadsheet I would definitely give as much guidance as I could. I'm also sure that approaching other past presidents would also shed...
I intended nothing that formal, simply that once the the returns were filled to cut Bob a cheque for $500 along with an immense amount of gratitude. This is not about paying him to do the work imo,...
Hi Brett,
The income statements on two pages are not for the same years. The $2370 was for the past year (2011-2012) while the $2340 (2012-2013) was a crude approximation of what will be given to...
Working bar hours are killing me slowly. Thank you for the correction, it is of course what I meant and I apologize for any confusion my error caused.
I suppose that this would also be a good opportunity to call for any amendments or ask if anyone has an intention of making an amendment.
Hi Kevin,
After some careful deliberating and consulting if there are any amendments that anyone wishes to make to the budget they should do so with a seconder.
