		+	PROPOSAL TO AMEND BYLAWS FOR ANNUAL ELECTION
		+
		+	WHEREAS the membership desires:
		+	* To hold an annual election for directors/officers on the third
		+	Tuesday of September;
		+	* To allow voting in person or by absentee ballot at this election;
		+	* To allow $39 members to run for director/officer positions;
		+	* To allow $39 members to vote for directors/officers, but not on any
		+	other matter;
		+	* To change the maximum number of directors from five to seven.
		+
		+	WE RESOLVE to amend the following sections in the bylaws to read as
		+	follows:
		+
		+	Article 3. Members
		+
		+	Section 1. Determination and Rights of Members
		+
		+	The corporation shall have two classes of members: Core and Limited.
		+	No member shall hold more than one membership in the corporation.
		+
		+	Section 4. Fees and Dues
		+
		+	The amount required for monthly dues shall be $89 for Core members and
		+	$39 for Limited members. Dues are payable to the treasurer each month
		+	by the first regular meeting of the members of the corporation. Dues
		+	may be prorated at the discretion of the board. The board may
		+	establish scholarships to cover the all or part of the dues dues of
		+	members who can demonstrate financial need.
		+
		+	Article 4. Meetings of Members
		+
		+	Section 2. Regular Meetings
		+
		+	A regular meeting of members shall be held on the third Tuesday of
		+	September, at 7:00 P.M., for the purpose of electing directors and
		+	officers and transacting other business as may come before the
		+	meeting. The candidates receiving the highest number of votes up to
		+	the number of directors to be elected shall be elected. Each voting
		+	member shall cast one vote, with voting being by ballot only. Members
		+	unable to vote in person may request an absentee ballot from the
		+	Secretary. The annual meeting of members for the purpose of electing
		+	directors shall be deemed a regular meeting.
		+
		+	Other regular meetings of the members shall be held on the first and
		+	third Tuesday of each month, at 7:00 P.M.
		+
		+	If the day fixed for a regular meeting falls on a legal holiday, such
		+	meeting shall be held at the same hour and place on the next business
		+	day.
		+
		+	Section 7. Voting Rights
		+
		+	Each Core member is entitled to one vote on each matter submitted for
		+	a vote by the members. Each Limited member is entitled to vote only on
		+	the election of Directors and Officers. Voting at duly held meetings
		+	shall be by voice vote and/or electronic message and/or written
		+	ballot. Election of directors and officers, however, shall be by
		+	written ballot and/or electronic message only. Votes by proxy or
		+	other means other than a direct communication with the Secretary will
		+	not be considered valid. Votes must be cast within 72 hours of the
		+	vote opening.
		+
		+	Article 5. Directors
		+
		+	Section 1. Number
		+
		+	The corporation shall have at least five (5) and no more than seven
		+	(7) directors and collectively they shall be known as the board of
		+	directors.
		+
		+	Section 2. Qualifications
		+
		+	Qualifications for directors of this corporation shall be as follows:
		+	1. Directors shall be of the age of majority in this state;
		+	2. Directors shall be Core or Limited members of this corporation,
		+	in good standing.
