Dear Evan, Margy and members:
For anyone truely interested in the obligations, procedures and timelines 
involved in the job of Recording Secretary they are set out in the Policy and 
Procedure manual.
Some significant sections: Only the person making the motion is recorded -no 
seconds.
                                        Minutes are to be mailed within 30 
days. 
                                        Lengthy discussions will not be 
incorporated, unless requested by a Board member.
                                        Letters which are not read into the 
minutes are not included.
                                        No editorial comments shall be included.
                                        The agenda shall be prepared by the 
Recording Secretary with in put from the President.
For anyone interested about when a closed or Executive Session is appropriate 
please look to Roberts Rules. There are valid and legal reasons for an 
Executive Session. Our Bylaws and Policy and Procedure require the recording of 
all yeas and nays on motions and the names of those voting in the minority.
When a Board acts the majority rules. If you disagree your vote is noted.
The Board strives to abide by the Bylaws and the Policy and Procedure manual 
(the P&P is a guideline not a mandate). I doubt we are perfect. 
Additionally each Board member owes a fiduciary duty to the Board.
As I have repeatedly informed the members I will be happy to discuss the 
obligations or matters before the Board with any member. The Board members will 
not discuss Margy Golant's actions as this matter would properly fall under 
Robert's Rules for an Executive Session. Evan should know that too-Kris 
Fasano-515-993-1932.
