This article was reduced to one sentence in the draft bylaws and the remaining sections moved to more logical locations. The dissolution of the Association provision was in violation of Federal Labor law. Every effort has been made to cross reference the new with the existing document so that the reviewer can quickly find where things have been moved. This effort, however is not all inclusive. The use of blue highlight attracts attention to changes, be they entirely new or a rewrite of the existing procedure.
Black type represents items that have remained basically unchanged.
The use of Appendices have been incorporated to provide a vehicle for updating the schedules of dues, remuneration and reimbursement so as to provide a quick ready reference. The ratification of this document is scheduled for 10 May 2001. Every member is encouraged to vote. In the mean time, voice your opinions, but please, compare this new effort to the existing Bylaws. It is possible for change to be a good thing.
