****Issue # 1 - Clarification of Officer Attendance Policy***
Proposal by David Smith
--Option 1: Attendance that occurs at any park/event in the kingdom to count as an attendance for their appropriate office.
Change 2.2.13, 2.3.7, 2.4.7, and 2.5.11
From - "Shall descend from the throne if he or she misses four weeks in a row or eight weeks in total."
To - "Shall descend from the throne if he or she misses four weeks in a row or eight weeks in total at the local park or kingdom in which he or she holds office."
--Option 2: Only attendances that occur at the park in which they are currently an officer would count. This would apply to local offices only & would not have any effect on the Kingdom Officers.
Add 2.2.13.a, 2.3.7.a, 2.4.7.a, and 2.5.11.a
"If this position is held at the local level, shall descend from the throne if he or she misses four weeks in a row or eight weeks in total at the park in which he or she holds office."
Reasoning: It is unclear whether or not the attendance of parks outside of your own count toward your required attendance for Officer Positions
*Note: Please vote for either Option #1, Option #2, or No to both.
****Issue # 2 - Removal of NPO requirement for Duchies****
Proposal by Proposal by Brittany Lopez
Remove section 9.2 subsection 3.b.c “Registered as a non-profit organization with the appropriate state, provincial, or federal authorities."
Reasoning:
1) No one does it anyway and it's a huge burden on parks
2) We can't be doing this with the way our current contract works with AI. If our Duchies have BoDs and are operating as NPOs, whether they're legally incorporated or not, they need to sign contracts with Amtgard International.
