NSRCA Election process - We need better bylaws?

[Bob Pastorello]

The "acid test" for rules/bylaws is this:
    Does the rule/law serve the betterment of the effort?

If no, rule is not needed and can be discarded.
If yes, rule-writing is complete.
    No further action needed.

  This message is to the future board of the NSRCA. 

  The current bylaws were the first attempt for many years to really overhaul the previous bylaws. The old bylaws were very lacking in many areas. They relied upon experience being passed on from elected member to elected member.

  I took all that I had gathered in my years of NSRCA service and took a crack at producing new ones. Admittedly it was a bit of a solo effort and, despite a voting process that was involved, it is becoming clear that they could do with some more inspection. 

  I have monitored their use and usefulness. I think that they need another go around to address weaknesses in process and to address 21st technology capabilities. I would suggest that our future board form a Bylaws sub-committee, The BSC needs to go over what we have, recommend changes and update the bylaws as per the bylaw process.

  I can think of quite a few changes that need to made after this last election cycle and before District-VP elections hit us in November/December 2005. I also think that it needs to be someone with a passion for this stuff, other than myself. Some of you out there showed high degrees of interest and would be great candidates for the task.

  The bylaws should make it possible for succession to take place smoothly and make it easy to handle process and procedural issues without having to reinvent the wheel every time.

  Regards,

  Eric.
