Thu Jul 19 02:11:15 EDT 2018


I note also, that there is a different process for auto-approval - so I
will correct a few of the deadline dates above - the deadline on this one is
 *14 days *and not *15 days* so objections from attending Ex Comm members
are due *July 31, 2018.*


LNC Policy Manual-Adopted 2018-06-30

   1.

   Meeting minutes for Executive Committee meetings may be promoted from
   draft status to official during the time between Executive Committee
   meetings as follows:
   -

      Draft minutes for Executive Committee meetings shall be emailed to
      all LNC Members not more than 7 days after each meeting.24
      -

      Absent objection from an Executive Committee member who attended the
      meeting, the minutes shall be deemed to be approved 14 days after their
      distribution.25
      -

      Executive Committee minutes shall be distributed to all LNC Members
      and alternates within 7 days of such approval.
      -

      The Secretary shall send an official copy of meeting minutes to staff
      within 7 days of the promotion of those minutes from draft to official
      status.

   Thank you very much Jim, I agree with your comments on listing the LNC
   members up top, that is a very good suggestion.  Yes, the green is for
   the final form that is recorded in my motion tally ledger (I will
   clarify that in the legend) - and yes this is something new that I do -
   I find it very helpful and is something I do in many committees I work
   on.  It will certainly make Chuck Moulton's end of term work easier:)
   But I think it also provides members with an in-progress way to assess
   their representatives.
   I will incorporate your changes in the second draft after the review
   period is up.

     Dear colleagues:
         I hope all is well with you.  I am writing to offer comments and
     suggestions concerning the draft minutes of the Executive Committee
     meeting on July 12.
     1)  Allow me to suggest that in listing the attendees who are not EC
     members, LNC members and alternates should be listed immediately
     after the list of EC members who are not in attendance.  Thus, I
     suggest that the following text be inserted immediately after the
     statement "Not Attending: Tim Hagan (Treasurer)":
     Other LNC participants were:  Alicia Mattson (At-Large
     representative), Elizabeth Van Horn (Region 3 representative),
     Whitney Bilyeu (Region 7 representative), Susan Hogarth (Region 5
     alternate).
         I suggest this because many LP members consider it the
     responsibility of LNC members to attend EC meetings when possible. I
     believe listing the LNC members and alternates in attendance
     immediately after the list of those EC members not in attendance
     makes it easier to determine at a glance which LNC members were (and
     were not) present.  Incidentally, if I recall correctly, minutes of
     EC meetings during the 2016-2018 term listed (non-EC) LNC members
     and alternates in the manner I suggest.
     2)  Ms. Bilyeu is listed in the gallery as the Region 3
     representative; she is the Region 7 representative.  Also, Ms.
     Mattson is listed as an "At Large Representative" in the gallery,
     whereas Mr. Goldstein and Mr. Redpath are listed as "At-Large
     Representatives" in the list of EC members.  Allow me to suggest
     that there be consistency in hyphenation.
     3)  In the legend, it is noted that substantive main motions are
     listed in green text.  Do I assume correctly that the green text
     will be used only for the final version (after amendment) of a
     substantive main motion?  I ask because I believe Mr. Redpath's
     motion qualifies as a substantive main motion, albeit one that was
     subsequently amended.
         Please note that I reviewed the draft at warp speed (I had a
     little free time this afternoon following the lectures I gave to my
     courses).  Thus, it is possible I have overlooked something worthy
     of note.
         As always, thanks for your work for liberty.  I hope my comments
     are helpful to you.
         Take care,
         Jim

         Attached are the first draft minutes from the July 12, 2018
     ExComm
         Meeting. Please note that the LNC has a policy which allows
     automatic
         approval (if no objection) under various time frames. See Policy
     Manual
         Section 1.02.6 for the details of this process, which are the
     basis for
         the dates at the top of page 1 of this draft. Any requests for
         correction are due within 15 days, by AUGUST 1, 2018. After that
     time I
         will put out an updated draft which will become auto-approved
     absent a
         qualifying objection (which would generate a new set of
     deadlines or
         postpone approval until the next LNC meeting).
