AMENDMENTS TO PLES PAC BYLAWS

We are proposing five amendments to our PAC Bylaws.  Please take a moment to read over these changes.  You can view our current PLES Constitution and Bylaws HERE.  There will be a vote at our AGM to approve the following amendments:

Change Location: Section III - Executive, 3.2. Executive Defined, Subsections c - f

Recommended Changes: 

  1. Removal of ‘;’ and replaced with ‘.’ in section 3.2, c.
  2. The role of President may be split and shared by two members.  Each member will have one vote at general and executive meetings.
  3. The role of Vice President may be split and shared by two members.  Each member will have one vote at general and executive meetings.
  4. Subsection d.: The roles of Secretary, Treasurer, and Communications Coordinator may be split and shared by two members who will each have one vote at general and executive meetings.
  5. Subsection e.: Change COPACS Rep to COPACS Representative

Justification:

  1. All executive members' roles can be shared.  The current Bylaws do not state the President role, or Vice President role can be shared, only when the two roles are combined.  
  2. Adding a separate President and Vice President co-shared position change will modify the subsection bulleting for the remaining roles.
  3. Adding the Communications Coordinator role can be shared to align with all other executive positions.
  4. Changing COPACS Rep to COPACS Representative to maintain cohesive language throughout the document.

If you have any questions regarding the above amendments, our upcoming PAC meeting or AGM, or if you would like to place a nomination for an executive position, please don't hesitate to connect with us at prospectlakepac@gmail.com
