Quorum:
Discussion and Action:
On 9/11/24 an email vote was conducted to vote on Jason Leimkuhl taking over as the primary member for HVAC Solutions as Tim Donegan has resigned. A motion was made by Steve Dufaud to accept him into the membership. That motion was seconded by Bob Goss. Two members of the board did not reply to the email, but all others voted in agreement.
Other business:
Discussion on our members not understanding the requirement of giving a lead each week and the $2.00 fine assessed in absence of a lead. Karole Campbell briefly covered it in our announcements at this morning’s meeting but will reach out to two members who may not fully understand.
The other bylaw discussed was 10.2 which states, “Certain conduct is per se inconsistent with objectives of the Association and as such shall constitute ground for immediate expulsion from membership. Such conduct includes, but is not limited to, fraud, kickbacks or referral fees between members, asking or requiring a lead for a lead between members, criminal conduct relating to client or customer contracts.” The board feels if referral fees are paid as a company policy and not an exclusive benefit to the membership, that practice would not be in violation of the bylaws.
Our next meeting will be October 15, 2024.
