Full Members have the option at any time to become Non-Voting Members, or thereafter to re-activate as a voting Full Member, by emailing our voting account ([email protected]) or notifying the Board of Directors. Non-Voting Members will not be counted when calculating whether quorum has been reached.

Full Members who have not attended a meeting or voted by proxy or in absentia for three consecutive months will automatically become Non-Voting Members until they re-activate by either voting or attending a meeting. Non-Voting Members who become Non-Voting by choice are eligible to vote on any issue without revoking their Non-Voting status.

Board members are not eligible to become Non-Voting Members. Records of member attendance and voting will be maintained by the Secretary.

Official wording will be available for the General Meeting.
