8:24-Vice Chair DeWayne Lark made the substitute motion to have delegate's
meeting in Sept
on 13 at 10 AM to discuss the Uzzell matter with the location to be determined.
Robert Mark noted that there was no way that we would be able to have the
meeting posted on August 13 thus he felt that the 30 day notice would not be
possible for this. Teresa Allen requested to have an
amendment for the substitution amendment to have a change of the date due to
concerns regarding members who could not make it to the meeting to the date of
September 17 at 7PM.
A roll call vote was requested for the substitute motion as amended that A
Delegates Meeting would be held September Sept 17th at 7 PM - The motion for
the roll call vote failed. The vote for the substitute motion as amended was
voted on and passed.
