WHEREAS a lean local management team can more effectively and efficiently carry out the business of the local

BE IT RESOLVED to amend Bylaw 6 Section 1 to read "the Executive Committee of this local shall consist of a President, a Vice-President, a Secretary and a Treasurer." At the AGM's convenience, the same individual may be nominated to hold both the positions of Secretary and Treasurer, however, separate elections must be held for each position. The consequence of passage of this resolution would be to reduce the number of VPs from 3 (three) to 1 (one) only and remove the status of Area Council Delegate from the Executive Committee. Bylaw 7.5 (The reference to Area Council Delegate) is also to be deleted from the Local's Bylaws.
