  6. Case of Multimedia Publishing of NC vs Henderson County The court noted: “The purpose of minutes is to provide a record of the actions taken by a board and evidence that the actions were taken according to proper procedures.”

  7. Robert’s Rules of Order Defines minutes as the “record of proceedings.”

  8. Minutes Must Include • Name of Club/District • Type of meeting • Date and place of • meeting (must be stated) • Who called meeting to • order and at what time • Identify the Presiding • Officer with his/her title

  11. Important in Recording Minutes • Record business as listed on • the agenda and any action • taken. If no action is taken, • then record “No action taken • or information only.” • Record the exact wording of • all motions including the • name (and club) of the maker • of the motion. • Record the fact that the motion was seconded, but the • name of the person seconding the motion is not required.

  12. Important in Recording Minutes • Motions without a second are not recorded in the minutes. • Record whether the motion carried, failed (record the • names of those who voted no or abstained if requested • and there are no objections) or was tabled, etc.

  13. A motion that is withdrawn is • not mentioned in the minutes. NOTE • However, if the motion is seconded and restated to the • Assembly by the chair, the motion is owned by the • Assembly and cannot be withdrawn and should be • recorded in the minutes.
