how to fill a vacancy When the financial secretary resigns and the by-laws don't address filling vacancy
Hello Cheryl,
The body that voted or appointed the financial secretary is the body that fills the vacancy. If the board appointed this member, then the board fills the vacancy. If the members elected this person, then an election needs to take place to fill the vacancy.
Cheerio,
Little Ben
