Article 7, Section 1 should read “Proxy voting is allowed at all Regular Meetings. Proxy must be in written form, clearly identifying the proxy grantor and grantee. Proxy must be surrendered to Secretary for records.”
This change is a mandatory change to bring out bylaws into compliance. The current wording for the proxy voting is not in compliance with the Act 80 of 1855. Act 80 strictly states that “all votes cast at an annual meeting must be from members in attendance at the meeting”.
