Membership Meetings
Voting
Only WSAC members in good standing may vote at meetings. Member voting eligibility is determined as follows:
- WSAC members in good standing are those who have paid their dues for the current year.
- Only one representative of a member group in good standing may vote on behalf of that member group.
- We suggest that all individuals belonging to member groups also join as WSAC individual members to maximize their benefits of membership and to enable them to have their own votes at meetings.
- WSAC memberships expire at the end of October in the year they are purchased. (Obtain your Membership Application Form here)
The Annual General Meeting
Our Bylaws require us to have an Annual General Meeting (AGM).
- The AGM in 2012 will be held Saturday, April 14, 2012, at 3:00 p.m.
- All individual WSAC Members as well as a representative from each WSAC Member Group should attend the Annual General Meeting.
- There will be room on the board for more directors, so please consider standing for a position.
Meeting Reports
The following reports are typically made at the AGM:
- President's Report.
- Treasurer's Report.
- Brief reports about their activities from groups and individuals who have received funding from the WSAC during the year prior to the meeting.
Special General Meetings
The by-laws have the provision for additional membership meetings, termed Special Membership Meetings.
Special Membership Meetings may be called for a variety of reasons. WSAC members will be notified in advance about the details of such meetings.
