Special Membership Meeting Reminder (Copy)
Dear Members,
This email is a reminder that we will be holding a Special Membership Meeting (SMM) on Monday March 7, 2022 at 11:00 PT / 12:00 MT / 14:00 ET to discuss and approve the CUPE 4070 budget.
This will be our 3rd attempt at passing a budget. We were unable to pass one at the November 2021 General Membership meeting due to a lack of time. Another General Membership Meeting was held 45 days later in December 2021 where quorum was not met.
We currently have 25 Members signed up for the meeting. The CUPE 4070 Bylaws speaks to Special Membership Meetings and quorum as follows:
SECTION 5 – MEMBERSHIP MEETINGS
(b) Special Membership Meetings of Local 4070 may be required and shall be called by the Board or may be requested in writing by no fewer than five percent (5%) of the total membership. The President shall immediately advise members when a Special Membership Meeting is called and ensure that all members receive at least twenty-four (24) hours’ notice of the Special Membership Meeting, the subject(s) to be discussed, the date, time and location. No business shall be transacted at the Special Membership Meeting other than that for which the meeting is called, and notice given.
(c) Quorum The minimum number of members required to be in attendance for the transaction of business at any General or Special meeting shall be forty (40) members, plus at least two (2) members of the Board. Should quorum not be obtained at any General Membership Meeting, the Board shall have the authority to conduct the business of the Local and will report at the next General Membership Meeting.
Members in Good Standing (that have signed a Union Card) are asked to sign-up for our Teams Meeting using this link:
