Agenda Items

1. Welcome by temporary meeting Chair

ST welcomed everyone to the meeting and asked those in attendance if there
was any objection to him acting as temporary Chair until item 2 and 3 had
been covered. No objections raised so ST continued with opening comments
regarding the history and successes of the Club.

Other in attendance also commented on the successes to date and a general
consensus that all wanted to see the Club continue and proposer on the
future.

2. Decision on the Clubs Future

A vote was then undertaken regarding the main proposal

a. That the Club should continue to operate with the formation of a new
Club committee. Votes in favour = 10

b. That the Club should be wound up as per section 11 of the constitution
(amended 2003) Votes in favour = 0

It was therefore agreed unanimously that proposal a. would be carried and
agenda item 3 should progress

3. Nomination and election of committee members

A discussion regarding the number and type of committee roles was
undertaken and agreed that at this stage that the club would elect three
members to form the committee namely a Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer.
The Secretary would act also as deputy Chair when necessary.

Position Nominated Nominated by Seconded For Against

Chairman Steve Topping Peter Webster Lee Stamper 8 0

Secretary John Bracegirdle Peter Webster Skip Meekins 8 0

Treasurer Andrew Holland Stephen Palmer Tony steel 8 0

ST, JB and AH were therefore duly charged to form the new committee on
behalf of the club, all accepted their nominated positions.

As a result actions would be necessary by the outgoing Treasurer, SM, to
make arrangements for transfer of authorised signatories to the clubs bank
account.

propose an update to the constitution as elements had become outdated and
it had last been reviewed in 2003

ST closed the meeting and thanked everyone for their attendance noting that
a further club meeting would now be arranged for Monday 5th Feb at the Vets
