One important task of our developmental ministry has been modernizing and refreshing our congregation’s bylaws. A team of congregations leaders, chaired by Past President Patricia Wright, has been working diligently with our Developmental Minister for the past year to study UUA recommendations and the best practices of similar-sized UU congregations to draft refreshed bylaws.
The Bylaws Refresh Task Force is happy to announce they have completed the first draft of proposed bylaws to be considered for adoption at the Annual Meeting in June. We would like to share the draft proposal with the congregation at two Bylaws Refresh Town Halls. We will provide information on the process we followed, the changes we’re recommending, and we want to hear from you before we finalize the proposal.
Please plan to join us online on Wednesday, April 13, from 6:30-8:30 pm for our first Bylaws Refresh Town Hall or in person at the church on Sunday, May 1, from noon until 2 pm. You’ll have a chance to ask questions and provide feedback for the Task Force to consider. We will share a Zoom link as the first date nears. We hope to see you there!
