Trustees approve cleanup of bylaws to remove outdated references

The Government Employees Retirement System Board of Trustees approved a set of administrative edits to the board bylaws intended to remove outdated references and to update former names used in the document.
Trustee Clark moved to adopt the policy committee’s bylaw cleanups, which the committee described as removing references to outdated technology such as faxes and correcting an earlier name for the Government Employees Retirement System. The motion was seconded and approved by the trustees present; Trustees Leger and Russell were recorded as absent.
The board recorded the vote as yes from Trustee Clark, Trustee Dorsey, Trustee Smith and Trustee Caldwell. The action was presented as a housekeeping measure and no statutory citations or substantive policy changes were referenced on the record.
The board then proceeded to the investment officer’s report.
