ByLaws
Submitted by Donald Vigneau on Fri, 03/24/2017 - 15:43Reading the proposed ByLaws revisions, I find there is currently no requirement for how and when Notice is given; for meetings or other date-specific events. Such Notice (other than Emergency), found in many ByLAws, would have a legally sufficient time for delivery noted.
It would be a welcome addition to provide for notice if that is possible to consider in this revision:
a) Electronically, where one or more email addresses are recognized in personal information supplied; OR
CT Building Code is available for purchase
