Amendments

HOUSE of DELEGATES

DISCUSSION Items

• Why ‘may’ instead of ‘shall’?–Each word has different

implications–“Shall” = mandate–“May” = option–Some vacancies occur very late in

the year

DISCUSSION Items

• Why ‘board of trustees and affected Governors’ instead of ‘International Council’?– Position: Board of Trustees more familiar with

Trustee duties and requirements– Position: affected District Governors should be

part of process to represent District interests– Language Concern: limitation of candidate pool

to members of affected Districts only
