Proposed Constitution Change — Expenditures
The Jersey Shore Running Club is proposing an additional clause to the FINANCES section of its Club Constitution to clearly define general expenditures which must be approved by the
general membership.
VI. FINANCES
G.
All general Club expenditures over $1000 must be approved by the general
membership. General Club expenditures are those expenditures that are not directly
related to Club events that maintain their own budgets (i.e. races, parties, etc.)
a.
General expenditures may be approved by a two-thirds vote of the members
present at the meeting.
b.
Only those who have been members of the organization for 30 days prior to
the proposal of such expenditures may vote upon such.
________________________________________________________________
Proposed Constitution Change —
Code of Conduct
The Jersey Shore Running Club is proposing a modification to the membership criteria of its
Club Constitution to incorporate a Code of Conduct for membership. The Board proposed
modifying the current Article III defining Club Membership, which reads:
III. MEMBERSHIP
A. The only requirement for membership shall be the payment of dues and signing of a
liability waiver.
To read:
III. MEMBERSHIP
A. Membership in the Club shall be determined by the payment of dues and the
completion of an application for membership, which includes agreeing to follow the
Club’s Code of Conduct and signing a waiver of liability for participation in Club
activities.
B. Code of Conduct
a. All Club members must agree to the Club’s Code of Conduct. Violations of the
Code of Conduct may result in disciplinary action by the Board including, but
not limited to, suspension of club activity privileges and/or removal from the
Club.
b. Any disciplinary action must be approved by two-thirds of the Board.
c. Approval by two-thirds of the Board is required to modify the Code of
Conduct.
