Divsion Constitution

• Divsion 300 Constitution

  (as currently in effect)

• Proposed Revisions to the Constitution

  Because the division has less then 200 members, there are fewer elected stewards than there are designated council officers. As written, the constitution requires all council oficers to be stewards: the proposed changes provide for the election of non-steward council officers.

  All amendments to the constitution are in Article IV, Sections 1, & 2 a new Section 1A; editorial-only changes have been made in Article IV, Section 3 (grammar) and in Article VIII (listing of amendment process steps into chronological order).
