206.02 Vice President

VICE-PRESIDENT

 

The vice-president of the board is elected by a majority vote at the organizational meeting of in odd-numbered years, or, in even-numbered years, at a regular meeting held between twelve to thirteen months after the most recent organizational meeting, to serve a one-year term of office.

By this election, if the board president is unable or unwilling to carry out the duties required, it is the responsibility of the Vice-President of the board to carry out the duties of the president.  If the president is unable or unwilling to complete the term of office, the vice-president will serve as president for the balance of the president's term of office, and a new vice-president will be elected.

The vice president shall accept control of the meeting from the president when the president wishes to make or second a motion.  The vice president shall take an active role in board decisions by discussing and voting on matters before the board in the same manner as other board members.
