[Lnc-business] status of call for electronic meeting

[Alicia Mattson]

>From the policy manual, "Each committee member calling for an electronic
meeting must do so by emailing the entire committee and specifying the date
of the meeting, time of the meeting, and the topic(s) to be addressed.
Meetings must be so called no fewer than 2 days in advance for committees
with fewer than 10 members, or 7 days in advance for committees with 10 or
more members."

The call needs to include 1) date, 2) time, and 3) topic(s) to be addressed.

Previously there were six people requesting an electronic meeting for a
topic (suspension of VC Vohra- previously moved by both McKnight and Van
Horn), but there was no date/time specified.  Those people were:  Harlos,
Katz, Redpath, Goldstein, McKnight, Van Horn.

Now there is a date/time specified (on a thread which implies the topic is
suspension of the Vice Chair), but since there is a sufficiently-sponsored
email ballot on a related topic I cannot just assume that the same people
are willing to still sponsor the call of the meeting under different
circumstances.  I have a lot of email clutter today, but so far I believe I
have seen the following people join meeting calls:

01/28/17 at 10:00 p.m. Eastern (Harlos, Katz)

10/28/17 at 9:00 p.m. Eastern (Harlos, Hagan)

As a parliamentary matter, scope of notice rules would allow a meeting
called to consider suspension to also consider a lesser action such as
censure.  The scope of notice covers anything in the range between the
status quo and the proposed action which was noticed.
