  2. What is a revision of Bylaws? • A revision of the bylaws means changes that are to be made in order to align the organization with new and revise information. • This revision also stand until the bylaws are again put to this process.

  3. Brief information aboutrevising Bylaws If an organization decides to revise the bylaws, it should appoint a large committee with the most interested and vocal people. The committee members should represent many viewpoints. Those members of the organization who would ask the most questions and proposed amendments at a bylaw meeting should also be appointed to the committee. This way, committee members can work out many disagreements at the committee level and not during the presentation to the entire membership.

  4. Brief information aboutrevising Bylaws continuation Ask the entire membership to submit suggestions to the committee, and consider all suggestions carefully. There is no room for politics on the bylaw review committee. When the committee is done with the proposed revision, it needs to present the revision to the membership according to the amending procedure define in the bylaws. Because a revision is a proposed replacement of the current bylaws, the organization should send a copy of the revision with a letter explaining the major changes to the members.

  5. What the members need to understand about the revision The first thing the members need to understand about a revision is that the current bylaws are not under consideration at all. If the revision is defeated, no changes to the current bylaws take place. If a member like certain things in the revision but reject the revision the revision is a whole, they have to propose the sections that they like as amendments to the current bylaws.

  6. What the members need to understand about the revision (cont.) • The second thing to remember about a revision is that it is like the presenting new bylaws for the first time: Everything in the proposed revision is open to change by the membership, not just the changes that the committee proposes making to the previous bylaws. • Third, although not voted upon this matter, the bylaw revision is usually considered, presented, discussed, and amended article by article. After all the articles are read, discussed, and amended, the revision as a whole is opened up for discussion and further amending. This way, if something in Article V is changed and it affects something in Article II, the members can return to Article II and fix it before voting on the amended revision. • Please remember to present the bylaw revision on a special meeting or series of special meetings.

  7. How to make a motion on a Proposed Revision • What is a motion? A motion is a tool that enables the organization to accomplish business efficiently and smoothly. They are the means of bringing business before the assembly, disposing of it quickly, and resolving matters of procedure and urgency.
