Can a board introduce a motion to be voted on?
If you would like to know more about how Parliamentarian Procedure from Little Ben, click here for my DVD called How To Run A Meeting.
May a church board introduce a motion to be voted on? The board had previously made to motion available in print.
Dear Jim,
Of course a board can do this. When it is presented the person making the motion for the board should phrase it this way: "By direction of the board, I move that..." It does not need a second.
Cheerio!
