Member Bylaws

Amendment to the Section Bylaws

By Phil Tygiel, PT, MTC

The following amendment to the Section Bylaws will be offered for consideration by the membership at the 2014 Annual Conference

Proposed by the Board of Directors

Move to amend the Section bylaws Article XII. Finance: D. by striking “All dues changes approved by the Section membership and approved by the Association’s Board of Directors before the Association’s deadline will become effective on the first of the Association’s next fiscal year.”

and inserting: “All dues increases to an amount over $175.00 shall be approved by the Section membership and will become effective on the first of the Association’s next fiscal year.”

So that it would read:

“Article XII. Finance: D. All dues increases to an amount over $175.00 shall be approved by the Section membership and will become effective on the first of the Association’s next fiscal year.”

SS: This is a housekeeping measure to correct any contradiction in the existing bylaws between Article XII Sections 3A and 3D.
