Is it allowable to change words in bylaws without giving notice and voting,
|
Our organizations Bylaws are being updated with the most recent changes that have been by the book. But is it permissable to change things grammatically or change sentence structure because you think is sounds/reads better? The person updating is doing this. I always thought Bylaw wording could only be changed when notice has been given to proposed ammendments and they have been voted and accepted by the body members -- even if it's for clarity.

You are right. These changes should be voted upon. They can be presented as technical changes so the people voting will not think that something big is happening. One person's wording may not suit another. There is no reason not to do things right and it avoids trouble in the future.
Most people understand this, but there are a few who don't. They may not like it when you want to do it right.
