Areas and items under consideration for additions or changes in the Rules and Procedures
Manual that will be submitted on a future agenda.
- New Category - Priority of Procedures
- The Rules and Procedures manual will be the primary document of procedures used with the
Board of Trustees. In the event that the Guidance Code conflicts with any items contained in the
Rules and Procedures manual, the articles of the Guidance Code will take priority. When
discovered, the applicable item in the Rules and Procedures manual will be modified in whatever
way to eliminate the conflict with the Guidance Code.
- Current section #20 and #21 that conflicts with Article VIII, Section 17A of the Guidance
Code regarding only current Trustees being able to speak at a Trustee meeting. The GC states
that current and past Trustees may speak.
