ARTICLE VIII – Amendments to the Constitution

Section 1-Proposal: A member may propose an amendment by distributing it in written format and reading it aloud in a meeting. Voting of a proposal may not take place in the same meeting as that in which the proposal was made. Following the meeting, the proposal will be made known to all members of SPUGSO.

Section 2-Approval: During the next general meeting, and only after a thorough discussion to the satisfaction of all members present for the voting of a proposal, a vote will be taken on its approval provided that quorum is available. The amendment must secure two thirds of the votes available during the meeting.

Section 3-Recording: Any successful amendment will be recorded and copies of the new constitution will be presented on the SPUGSO website and made available in paper format. Two paper copies will be stored for record-keeping purposes.
