  12. Bylaw Highlights • Membership: Article XIV continues to state that to be invited to membership, a candidate shall be actively engaged in or have experience in a recognized business or profession in a decision making capacity. • Governor: The word “District” has been eliminated before the word Governor in the list of district officers. No other level of Zonta has a Governor.

  13. Bylaw Highlights cont’d • Committees: There shall be an Organization, Membership and Classification Committee, a Service Committee, a Legislative Awareness and Advocacy Committee and such other committees as the club board may authorize to achieve biennium goals. • Resolution: Daily Convention Fee: It will now be possible for non-delegate Zontians and guests to register for a single day of the convention.

  14. Dues Increase Delegates approved a $15 dues increase starting in 2011. The increase is needed for several reasons including: • Membership number decrease of over 1200 since 2004 • Bank interest rates historically low • Rose fund paying operating expenses instead of going to service • Only 40% of members gave voluntary $15 dues in 2008 • Only 10% of members give personal contribution to ZIF, although 80% of clubs do • Funds have to be taken from reserves, leaving them dangerously low Some of the ways Zonta International cut costs are: • Amalgamated ZI and ZIF Boards • Consolidated accounting for ZI and ZIF • Outsourced accounting so we pay only when used • Negotiations with service providers • Three instead of four Zontian magazine publications • Staff losses from ZI were not replaced until absolute need was shown
