Proposed PMTA Bylaws Changes

PMTA Editor — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 06:04:14 +0000

The proposed bylaws changes were approved at the November 2011 Board meeting.

The focus of this revision is the restructuring of the Executive Committee and Board of Directors, specifically:

Eliminate reference to 2nd VP/Conference Chair and all references to responsibilities associated with that officer position. The Conference Chair has been made a Board of Directors position rather than part of the Executive Committee.
Eliminate the Immediate Past-President/Representative-at-Large position all references to responsibilities associated with that officer position and all reference to responsibilities. It has been a non-functioning position.
Rename the “First Vice President position” to “Vice-President,” and define associated responsibilities.
Revise Board of Directors to include Conference Chair, and eliminate non-essential or non-functioning chairs.
Redefine a quorum for meetings to allow more flexibility.
Redefine the audit process.

Voting ballot will be included on your conference registration form (coming soon).

If you are not attending conference, you can still postal mail your ballot to the PMTA Administrative Assistant.
