GBAR Annual Meeting

The purpose of the annual meeting will be to hold a vote of the general membership on a series of proposed amendments to the Bylaws of the Greater Boston Association of REALTORS® (GBAR).

The Bylaws revisions to be considered would establish term limits for seats on the GBAR Board of Directors; clarify the process and conditions under which those elected to GBAR Director seats may be removed from the board of directors due to meeting absences; and update the Bylaws to properly reflect the title of the MAR leadership position for which the Nominating Committee is charged with recommending a candidate for election.
 
The first amendment would create a new Article XII, Section 2 to read: Members seeking elected leadership as a GBAR Director shall be limited to serving no more than three consecutive two-year terms. The second amendment proposes to amend the existing language of Article XII, Section 3 to read: Members of the Board of Directors are permitted to miss two Board of Directors meetings in a calendar year. Upon missing a second meeting, individuals will be placed on probation, and individuals who miss an additional meeting of the Board of Directors shall vacate their seat unless they can present a valid, excused absence as voted on by the Board of Directors. The third amendment is a housekeeping revision that would modify the language in Article XIV, Section 2 c to replace the title of MAR regional vice president for Greater Boston with MAR regional representative for Greater Boston.

 Each of these proposed amendments have been reviewed, discussed and approved by the GBAR Board of Directors. They now must be voted on and approved by the general membership to become official policy.
