Council of Elders Meeting Report
January 17, 2005 – Teleconference
The Council met briefly today in a teleconference to dispatch two items of business in open session. Jim Franks did not participate in the meeting because he is traveling overseas. Aaron Dean joined the meeting in progress.
The Council first reviewed and approved by resolution Statements of Concern to be submitted along with proposed amendments to Bylaws 8.3.1 and 7.9.2. In each case the vote to support the statement was unanimous (Aaron Dean had not yet joined the meeting).
Roy Holladay and Peter Eddington informed the Council of a need for an additional employee at the home office. The Council unanimously passed a resolution giving the administration permission to begin a search for a candidate to fill this position. When a qualified candidate is found, the Council will be consulted for its approval to hire that individual to fill the position as required by the Bylaws. (Mr. Dean was present for the discussion and vote.)
The Council concluded its business in executive session.
