We can replace censure/reprimand with warning. Expulsion could be replaced with
removal from membership. Should I replace conduct ith behavior? I didn’t think
myy words were particularly difficult, except, perhaps, for the word “censure.”
What is troublesome. I could replace voice with no vote by saying, a person is
allowed to speak but will lose the right to vote.

Great ideas. Layman's terms please!
Some people literally can't make sense of these terms.

Hi, Shannon,
I will expand on what I said. I think we should have a new article called
Conduct.
We should take out the sentence about removing disruptive people. It is in the
wrong place.
The new article should read something like this, and what I write is very rough
draft
KADB has the right to remove or discipline members from gatherings or from
membership who are disruptive to goals and operation of the organization.
No mmber of KADB may speak for the organization without permission from the
President, the Board, or a committee of the Board.
Discipline may take the following forms.
Removal from a meeting or function: This will only affect the current meeting
or function.
Reprimand or censure: This will be a warning to a member who engages in
behavior detrimental to KADB.
Removal from active status: The member will become an associate member. The
person will have voice but no vote inorganization meetings.
Suspension from KADB: The person will lose membership privileges for a defined
period. The person will not have voice or vote.
Expulsion: A person will be permently removed from the roles of KADB.
Reinstatement to membership: A person may request reinstatement. If the Board
decides that the person will no longer engage in disruptive or unbecoming
conduct, the member will be reinstated with a 2/3 majority of the Board.

Hello everyone I’m not sure who is all is on this list. So at our last KADB
meeting we discussed amending and updating our bylaws again for a few reasons.
One we need to think about adding some rules about disciplinary action so we
can be more prepared to deal with issues like the incident that has occurred
recently with a member. Also another reason to look at them again is we’re
working on getting our 501C3 paperwork in order to apply for the nonprofit
status too and that articles of incorporation are a part of that. So to begin
some dialogue what about thoughts on the disciplinary issue? Rick brought some
ideas at the meeting so maybe Rick you could reshare some of your thoughts to
help us begin the discussion. Feel free to respond everyone. Let’s begin
working on this. Thanks I welcome thoughts.
Shannon Caldwell
