Mid-Winter IBT Issues

In just two weeks the International Board of Trustees will be meeting in Robstown, Texas.  Region 7 President Joan Lahr will be representing our unit at this meeting.  There are two significant issues of which all WBCCI members should be aware.

Bylaws amendments

This year two special committees have been appointed to recommend changes, a Constitution and Bylaws Revision Committee (separate from the standing Constitution and Bylaws Committee) and a Motor Home Study Committee.  The report of the Constitution and Bylaws Revision Committee is missing from the agenda, so we do not know what changes will be proposed.

The report of the Motor Home Study Committee contains a paragraph which is cause for concern:  “The other alternative would be for a motion be presented to allow any member who owns a current Airstream Motor home to replace it with another brand class A coach.”  This is a controversial issue which was rejected by a majority of the membership in 2007.  Three Wisconsin Unit members, Sandy Emerick, Ed Emerick, and John Sellers, sent a letter to all members of the IBT, with copies to all unit presidents, regarding this issue.

Constitutional Amendment Proposed by Region 11

Region 11 has proposed a constitutional amendment, following the procedure prescribed by Article XVI of the WBCCI Constitution.  The chairman of the Constitution and Bylaws Committee has informed Region 11 that its proposed amendment will “not be allowed to go forward”.  The Region 11 President has introduced a motion at the mid-winter IBT asking the IBT to direct the Constitution and Bylaws Committee to perform its duties spelled out by the WBCCI constitution and published policies.  The Denver Colorado Unit which originally proposed this amendment has sent several letters to all unit presidents explaining their position.
