Committee adopts revised bylaws making secretary optional, clarifies chair role

The chair described recent bylaw revisions and told members they could replace the old bylaws with the updated version. The change, as explained by the chair, makes the secretary optional and confirms the president/chair presides and casts the controlling vote when configured by the bylaws.

The chair said the changes were minor and intended to simplify operations; members acknowledged the revision and did not object. The updated bylaws will be available for review alongside the draft budget worksheet before the February meeting.
