I give notice of the following motion:
In light of the 18 months months of work put in by the past Bylaws Committee and the fact that their report was not heard, that the Secretary make inquiry of last term’s Bylaws Committee regular members (not alternates) and if any wish to serve again, that they be automatically appointed by the Committee. Any open seats will be filled through an application process at our May meeting.
For reference, here are the members:
The LNC appointed the ten (10) members of the committee as follows:
· Sylvia Arrowwood, PRP
· Paul Bracco
· Nickolas Ciesielski
· Caryn Ann Harlos, RP
· Rob Latham, JD
· Frank Martin
· Chuck Moulton
· Tom Rowlette
· Mike Rufo
· Michael Seebeck
In Liberty, Caryn Ann Harlos
LNC Secretary and LP Historical Preservation Committee Chair ~ 561.523.2250

I will be giving an abbreviated verbal Secretary’s report regarding Delegate Allocations.
Mr. Darr I can often give a good guess on how much time to allow on agenda, but I cannot for your item, can you please let me know?

I am giving notice for the attached Policy Manual Amendment. Our processes are very unclear with whom the final decision on any challenges rest with. Right now it appears to be just the Secretary, and that doesn’t sit well with me. FYI I have a state with a challenge so this is a “live” issue. I will be reporting on the nature of the challenge and the historical information that was given to me on resolution of similar issue by a past Secretary, Bob Sullentrop.

I am giving notice for this Policy Manual Amendment as well.
Section 1.04 — Committee Scope & Responsibilities
8) Convention Oversight Committee (COC)
The COC shall make recommendations for convention sites and dates to
the LNC, but the LNC shall choose the site both.
On other matters concerning the Party’s conventions, the COC shall:
1. convey requirements to convention planners;
2. ensure the convention meets the Party’s needs;
3. recommend for approval by the Executive Committee or the LNC major elements such as contracts over $3,000; the convention budget; and the convention program including keynote speaker(s);
and
4. ensure all contracts with vendors over $3,000 go through a transparent bidding process regardless of dollar amount.
The COC shall report monthly its decisions and actions to the LNC. The COC may begin its work as soon as its members from the LNC are appointed.
==I forwarded this to Mr. Ford a bit ago and no objections were expressed.
The reasoning is that past practice was to approve all speakers even last term until the very end, and that lack of full LNC approval was controversial. And keynote is quite a plastic term. Can approval be avoided simply by not calling a keynote speaker a keynote speaker? Also just saying “all contracts” to me was too broad. What if we engage a photocopy vendor to produce some supplemental material? Do we have to get bids? It seems clear the intent was for significant contracts. The figure of $3,000 is used elsewhere I believe (or at least around that amount), so it seemed like a reasonable threshold to invoke bidding but I am open to a different amount.
