From Page 65 of the PandP Delinquent members By lapsing. A member's membership is considered lapsed if he/she has failed to pay his/her dues for any year by January 1 of such year and such members will be dropped from the roster of the Club as of that date. In no case may a person whose dues are unpaid as of the date of a Club meeting be entitled to vote at such meeting. A membership will be considered as lapsed and automatically terminated if such members dues remain unpaid 90 days after the first day of the fiscal year; however, the board may grant an additional 90 days of grace to such delinquent members in meritorious cases. Members paying during the grace period will retain the continuity of their membership but are not entitled to receive past Reviews. Reinstatement to membership will require submission as a new applicant. See By Laws Section 4 (b) Lapsed/non renewing members will receive an exit survey.
