Minutes of Committee Meeting held on July 6th, 2001, at 6.20pm

Present: Huntress, Debbie, Amanda, Michael, Troy(late), Corrine(late guest).

Apologies: Dragon, princess, Snow.

1 Business Arising:
1.1 Membership
1.1.1 Still some current members have not filled in their application forms or paid their fees for the financial year that has just finished.
1.1.2 Fees ($20 per individual) are now due for the new financial year.
1.1.3 A reminder needs to go out to everyone, to make them aware, that to nominate for a position on the Executive committee, or vote at the Annual General Meeting, they must be currently financial in the Association.

1.2 Venues: Unfortunately we will no longer be able to have workshops or meetings at the Anandamide premises as they will be leaving their current home due to repeated problems such as flooding, building code violations by the building owners and robbery. Planning of workshops will go on hold until a new venue can be found.

1.3 National List: Post to the National email list has still not occurred and Huntress informed the group that Dragon's email account has been bouncing on all yahoo groups so he would not be able to do this currently anyway. It was decided the post to the National list updating them on how we are going here in South Australia still needs to be done and should be sent by an office bearer. It was agreed troy would send this to the list (even though the list appears to be once again dead).

1.4 Other States: Huntress informed the rest of the committee that at least one other state (Victoria) is actively working on their branch of the national body, as she discussed this with them during her time away interstate recently. Like our local branch the Victorians have decided to adopt the quiet approach getting all the groundwork done first, before throwing it open to everyone. So far Huntress has passed along copies of the NSW, Qld, and SA constitution models for them to look over and adjust to what best suits them.

1.5 All other business items are to go on hold until after the AGM.

2 New Business:
2.1 Annual General Meeting:
2.1.1 Time and location - Rather than the last Friday in August this year (since there is actually 5 Fridays in that month) we will set it as Friday the 24th of August at 7pm (for a 7.30pm start), and hold it upstairs at Fleet St Cafe.
2.1.2 Positions vacant - At this point both the Treasurer and Secretary do not wish to resign so only those positions which must become vacant this year will be, which are President and Public Officer.
2.1.3 Agenda - Until any motions have been put forward the current agenda is as follows: Meeting is chaired by the Secretary
2.1.3.1 President's report
2.1.3.2 Secretary's report
2.1.3.3 Treasurer's report
2.1.3.4
    Elections -
  • President (once elected may then chair the meeting)
  • Public Officer
  • Ordinary committee members
2.1.3.5 Any other business that has been submitted within the required timeline.
2.1.4 Notification - Time and date of the AGM, along with details about how to submit motions and nominations so that they meet association rules will be posted asap to the SAmunch list.

2.2 Corporate Seal: Still need to order and purchase this (usually cost $20-$25) which we should be able to do with the payment of the new financial year memberships.

Meeting Closed: : 7.10pm
