especially want to define Membership and Board for next wave.
Bylaws adopted in whole, see:
http://www.marijuanalibrary.org/orgs/NORML/us/or/eug/libry/ByLaws.htm
Items of Interest,
-1. It was decided to not have age requirements in order to involved youth as activists. This means - as a policy - no smoking at meetings they attend. No fees or specific actions where defined for membership requirements at this time.
-2. Current Board, comprised of Foundation members are "interim" for a year or elections called for by membership. Full voting board status and exparte (advisory, non-voting) positions were noted.
In addition, categories were discussed - "admin" (administrative, which are generally elective, listed in ByLaws) and "ops" which are operational, on-going positions (and s/be listed in separate document, for the purposes of guidelines, ie- Principles of Operation).
-----
