At this annual meeting, we will be electing officers for the coming fiscal year and we have a few Bylaw changes which your Board has recommended to a vote by the Active membership. Many of the items are minor clarifications, simplifications, and conforming or cleanup matters, however a couple proposed changes are significant. Attached is a copy of the proposed (updated) Bylaws. An email was sent to Active Members explaining the significant changes. If you did not receive this email, and would like to receive it, please reach out to Stephanie at denverepc@gmail.com.
