New Name for Society

'Campus-communIty Radio Okanagan Society' was accepted and reserved yesterday as our name for 56 days. Its no winner but it makes CIRO if you use the I in community (unlike team there is an I in community).

1) We need to go over the constitution and bylaws and make sure they work and people understand how they work.

2) We need to sort out the 4/5 Board positions up for grabs.

Here's my thinking:

Shane will represent the UBC-O Student Radio Club
Lucy will represent UBC-O Students
Rob M will just represent (peace-out homey)
Cam (me) will represent geeks who know how to build and hopefully manage a society
Sarah who can represent a huge resource

If anyone else would like to nominate themselves now is the time.

All Board members will have to give me their physical and mailing address.

The Board meetings will all be open so that anyone can come but the ones above, if they so accept, will be undertaking a legal obligation as Directors of a society that one day will manage $10-100 thousands of dollars.

Changing board members outside of a yearly AGM meeting costs $30 which adds up quick if people start bailing.

Once we establish the society then we can sort out an AGM where Directors can be voted on.

3) We need at least 5 people to sign the form. These 5 will automatically become the first 5 members of the society. They need to have physical addresses (not box addresses though these acn be part of it). They do not have to be Board members.

4) We need a physical address for our society to be located where we can keep our books and such. We will also need to receive mail there. If the Phoniex space is accpetable then we need to make sure that works. Changing our mailing address as a society cost money.

5) We need an SU rep that they are happy with. At this stage it doesn't have to be a SU Councilor (though we should stress that for our AGM).
