Bike to the Future's Annual General Meeting

posted at October 12, 2007 22:29 (about 1 year ago)

Our Annual General Meeting is on Tuesday November 13th at 5:30 PM at the Eco-Centre, 3rd floor MEC building, 303 Portage Avenue. It will last approximately 30 minutes, and it will be immediately followed by our November Monthly Meeting.

The AGM agenda:

  • Welcome and introductions.
  • Approval of the minutes from our inaugural AGM on May 10th.
  • Presentation of yearly financial statements. This is not applicable because our first year-end won't occur until March 31, 2008.
  • Presentation of directors' annual reports.
  • Election of a new Board of Directors. (See below.)

Anybody can attend, but only Bike to the Future members can participate in the election of a new Board of Directors because the Board represents all members.

Board of Directors

Our Founding General Meeting was on May 10th, but we had decided that all AGMs will be in the fall because of the date of our fiscal year-end and other provisions in our organizational bylaws. All directors elected on May 10th retain their positions, but two of them have resigned, which means there are two vacancies on the Board. Also, three directors have changed positions:

  • Molly McCracken -- from Events & Fundraising Director to Director at Large.
  • Karin Kliewer -- from Director At Large to Membership Co-Director.
  • Cory Bellhouse -- from Director At Large to Membership Co-Director.

Therefore, the Board vacancies are Secretary and Events & Fundraising Director. Our bylaws state that we must have a Secretary, but Events & Fundraising Director could go unfilled in favour of another Director At Large or another position that the Board approves.

We are seeking nominations for these two positions. All nominations must have a seconder, and both the nominator and seconder must be Bike to the Future members. You should nominate yourself if you are interested in serving on our Board of Directors.

Please submit nominations (or any questions) to biketothefuture@gmail.com . Receipt of the nomination will be confirmed. We have already received a nomination for Secretary.
