Special General MeetingPenticton & Wine Country Chamber of Commerce
Approval of New By-Laws

 

The Board of Directors of the Penticton & Wine Country Chamber of Commerce recently completed a comprehensive review and revision of its operating By-Laws. This was undertaken to ensure the Chamber had appropriate alignment with the governing Board of Trade Act and with the context of business today.

  

Two draft versions of the revised By-Laws are being presented for consideration. These versions are identical with the exception of Article 5, Section 5.1 (Board of Directors Composition) and Article 6, Section 6.1 (Election and Succession to Office). Version A is scripted for no succession provisions. Version B is scripted to include succession provisions. In all other sections the By-Laws are the same.

 

Members are encouraged to read through the draft By-Laws below in their entirety and to give considerable thought to the succession provisions in preparation for the meeting.
