    1. [BOARD] Grievance Appeals
    2. Sherri
    3. For the record, the Advisory Board has been considering two appeals filed against on the decision in grievance 2009-08-15. These were filed by two different individuals, otherwise only a single appeal would have been allowed that included all points. As a reminder, per the Grievance Procedures, Section V, E.9 at http://usgenweb.org/volunteers/standard-rules.shtml, the AB's role is to determine if the Grievance Procedures were followed, not to rehear the issues. The choices that the Advisory Board has are to affirm the determination or to return the grievance to the Grievance Committee for reconsideration, ensuring that the procedures were followed. The following are the decision of the Advisory Board: Grievance 2009-08-15, Appeal #1 - The Advisory Board has affirmed the decision of the Grievance Committee. Grievance 2009-08-15, Appeal #2 - The Advisory Board has affirmed the decision of the Grievance Committee.

    1. Re: [BOARD] Re-laying the Motion to lay the table 2009/10-23
    2. W David Samuelsen
    3. It doesn't since there is a separate section describing different type of motion. This one is very specific with no specified time to return to it, allowing us more time to get it right and use simple motion to get it off the table when we are ready. The other tabling motion is more risky because of time constraints it impose on us. In this case the main motion is 2009/10-23 and any subsidiary motions that are attached to this one are tabled same time.

    3. I don't see that I mentioned it being specific to your Point of Order, except to the extent that I responded to your message with that subject. I will apologize for that oversight on my part. The tabling motion is here: http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/BOARD/2010-04/1272128138 There has not been a second to the motion. I would request that a time frame is specifically stated, otherwise, per Sturgis, no additional debate could occur when the issue is revisited.

    3. David, I quote from the USGenWeb Special Rules at http://usgenweb.org/volunteers/special-rules.shtml " VIII. CLOSED SESSION/MEETING CONFIDENTIALITY. A closed session may be called by the Presiding Officer at any time and will be conducted on Mailing List Board-Exec. Discussions in closed session include, but are not limited to, personnel matters, grievances, legal problems and other matters of a highly sensitive nature. Any votes conducted in closed session shall be publicly announced on Mailing List Board. With each change in permanent National Coordinator, the Advisory Board members will be polled to honor the confidentiality of Board-Exec. Honoring confidentiality is not a requirement but those members who do not agree will not be subscribed to Mailing List Board-Exec." Also "II. PARLIAMENTARY AUTHORITY. The parliamentary authority is The Standard Code of Parliamentary Procedure by Alice Sturgis (current revised and updated edition), modified within USGenWeb Special Rules to adapt to the particular needs of conducting a meeting via an electronic internet mailing list." While Sturgis may require a formal motion and second to go into closed session, section VIII, quoted above, does not require a formal motion and second to go into closed (executive) session.

Again, not ambigious, it is a very specifici motion. The other one requires specific date, which the current assembly can not act upon until that specific date. David On 4/24/2010 1:26 PM, Tina S.

    3. Sherri, you might as well go ahead and declare the Board list(s) moderated. It is apparent that it can not be used for day to day business of the Project. Just set the agenda and then call on each of us in turn , first assuring we are present (2 days), then setting an order that we all speak (2 days), then giving time for each of us time to speak (13 days), then giving time for questions and answers (169 days). Then allowing the issue to come to a vote (2 days), then we have the discussion period (169 days) and then viola -- we have a motion passed -- of course the newly seated ab will have to deal with it, as our term is up. 357 days will have passed, just enough time for us all to use the 6 days left to wish each other the best in our future endeavors. What a plan!

    1. Re: [BOARD] Executive Session "Point of Order"
    2. Sherri
    3. David, If you check the archives, the AB went into executive session to deal with the resolution of a grievance. That issue has not been completed at this point, so yes, the executive session continues and is not being used as a "blanket" (although I'm not sure what you're trying to convey with this word). The announcement of going into executive session has been done like this in the past with no objections, so it does follow past precedent. If the rest of you want me to change the way that executive sessions are handled, by all means, please let me know and I will be glad to do so. The opening of the NWPL SC representative position on the AB occurred after that session began, and we are required name a replacement within a certain time period per the bylaws. Since we're 7 days away from the end of that time frame, this is something that must be dealt with and putting it in line behind two or three other things is not going to work and still allow us to meet the time frame.

    3. How interesting..... Where did I say anything about resign or be removed in this point of order? Much less where is the tabling motion which was sent to the board at your request which was very plain and simple?

    2. Sherri
    3. It seems that things just keep rolling in one after the other. For the record, the Advisory Board is continuing in executive session, the new issue that we're dealing with is the appointment of a NWPL SC representative.
