THANK YOU, MR. HUNTER, AND THANK YOU, MRS. WAYMACK. NEXT ON THE AGENDA IS THE ADOPTION OF OUR AGENDA BOARD MEMBERS, WHAT'S YOUR
[ADOPTION OF AGENDA]
PLEASURE? SO MOVE, SECOND.IT'S BEEN PROPERLY MOVED BY MR. CARMICHAEL AND SECOND BY MR. WEBB THAT WE WOULD ADOPT THE AGENDA.
AS SO STATED, MRS. KNOTT. WOULD YOU PLEASE CALL THE ROLL? CARMICHAEL YES, MR. HUNTER. YES, MRS. WAYMACK. YES, MR. WEBB YES, MR. BROWN. YES.
THE NEXT PART OF OUR AGENDA IS OUR REORGANIZATION PORTION OF THE MEETING.
[Special Organizational Meeting]
I WANTED TO START JUST REAL QUICK, THOUGH, WITH MR. WHITTEN. HE WANTED TO COME UP AND EXPLAIN SOMETHING REALLY QUICK AND THEN WE'LL BE FOLLOWED BY MR. STOKE, WHO WILL TAKE OVER THE OFFICER'S PORTION.YES, MR. CHAIRMAN, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.
ON MONDAY WHEN THE QUESTION CAME UP OF CANCELING THE MEETING TONIGHT, THE QUESTION WAS WHO IS THE CURRENT CHAIRMAN OR CHAIR? LOOKING AT OUR BYLAWS, AN ELECTION YEAR, THE TERM OF THE CHAIRMAN OR CHAIR WOULD END ON DECEMBER 31ST.
BUT WHEN I LOOKED AT OUR MINUTES FROM LAST YEAR, THE RESOLUTION THAT WAS IN YOUR PACKET ACTUALLY STATED THAT THE CHAIR WOULD CONTINUE TO SERVE UNTIL HIS OR HER SUCCESSOR WAS APPOINTED IN 2022.
THAT WAS THE RESOLUTION THAT WAS APPROVED BY THE BOARD FOUR TO ZERO WITH MR. BROWN ABSTAINING AND THAT THAT WAS IN THE MINUTES.
THAT WAS THE RESOLUTION THAT WAS ALSO APPROVED BY THE BOARD.
SO LOOKING AT THIS, OBVIOUSLY THAT CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TWO, I TALKED TO MR. STOKE AND BASICALLY WE MADE THE DECISION THAT, YOU KNOW, MR. BROWN WOULD CONTINUE TO BE THE CHAIR UNTIL HIS SUCCESSOR WILL BE APPOINTED OR MR. BRUMBY APPOINTED IT AGAIN.
I CALLED MR. CARMICHAEL INFORMED HIM BECAUSE UNDER THE BYLAWS, TECHNICALLY MR. CARMICHAEL WOULD BE CHAIR.
SO I KIND OF WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT CONFLICT THERE.
AND WE JUST, I GUESS, FOR THE FUTURE AND THE ELECTION YEAR.
LET'S HAVE TO MAKE SURE I CAN MAKE SURE THAT THE RESOLUTION THAT IS PRESENTED TO THE
[00:05:02]
BOARD REFLECTS OUR BYLAWS THAT THE CHAIR SERVES UNTIL DECEMBER 31, WHICH MAKES SENSE BECAUSE THAT THE CHAIR DOESN'T WIN ELECTION.YOU WOULDN'T HAVE THE CHAIR. SO THAT'S WHY THAT LANGUAGE IS IN THE BYLAWS.
SO UNLESS THERE WAS ANY QUESTIONS, WE CAN PROCEED TO THE ANY BOARD MEMBER HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? I THINK IT'S CLEAR.
OK, THANK YOU FOR THE EXPLANATION, SIR.
