1 COMPARISON OF OLD AND PROPOSED CONSTITUTIONS (Current versus April 25, 2007 Draft) ARTICLE I NAME no changes ARTICLE II MISSION ( was OBJECTIVES) Completely rewritten to fill out the former bare-bones statement attempting to capture the spirit of the Beth El community ARTICLE III AFFILIATION United Synagogue of America updated to United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism. Provision for changing or dropping affiliation was deleted. Any change in affiliation is a significant decision and can be done via amendment to the new constitution. ARTICLE IV MEMBERSHIP Section 1 Age and moral-character qualifications deleted. They were out of step with the times. Section 2 (types of memberships) o Original constitution asserts four types of membership (family, individual, non-resident and mixed-marriage). o Simplified this section such that categories can be defined to address the nature of the membership demographics without requiring amendment to the constitution. o The Board is given the authority to define membership categories. o Asserts that privileges of membership are granted to members in good standing which is defined in the new section 6 of Article IV Section 3 Spells out family configurations and privileges of non-jewish family members. o Added a provision that allows non-jewish participants to chair committees if approved by board. Previously, non-jewish participants were unable to chair committees. Section 4 (was Sections 3 and 4)) o Expanded to assert that there is a financial commitment associated with membership o Membership applications no longer need be individually acted upon by the Board. Section 5 (no prior equivalent) Member-in-good-standing is defined. Section 6 (was Section 5) Updated rules for expulsion/suspension/revocation of status as member-in-good-standing. Section 7 (no prior equivalent) Provisions for reinstatement of membership-in-good-standing. ARTICLE V DUES Changes to dues will require approval by the congregation s membership, in addition to previous requirement for board approval. ARTICLE VI PRIVILEGES OF MEMBERSHIP Essentially just a rearrangement of the old list, except: o Bar/bat mitzvah training now explicitly mentioned. o Item 9: added the word single so that it is explicit and not implicit that each member unit has one single vote. o Serving as a committee members is no longer a privilege exclusively held by members (may be a non-jewish member of a member household) 1
2 ARTICLE VII MEETINGS Section 1 Annual meeting o Day of annual meeting was changed from the first Thursday of May to any Sunday in May, enabling much needed flexibility to the meeting date. o will now be an acceptable form of notice for meetings.. Section 2 Special meetings o Now special meetings are required to be called if 25 members instead of previous 15 call for one, in addition to calls coming from the President Section 3 Quorum o Defined in terms of households, not members. [Implies one vote per household, which is then explicitly stated in Section 4.], and remains at 25% of membership household units. o Adjournment provision unchanged. Allows interim adoption of a slate of officers and a budget, even in the absence of a quorum. This can be overturned by a future meeting. Special meetings section #2 above applies. o Added a requirement to notify congregation within one week of decisions made regarding slate and budget at meetings where a quorum was not present. Section 4 o Proxy voting unchanged still not allowed o One vote per family is now one vote per household. o Provision for split voting was dropped as it makes vote counting too complex. Section 5 o Removed. Our elections have evolved as a single proposed slate of officers and board members with voting by show of hands rather than by completed ballots as suggested by the current constitution. ARTICLE VIII BOARD OF TRUSTEES Section 1 no longer specifies number of Trustees or length of terms. [those are now in Section 2.] Section 2 members and terms [Had been in old Sections 1 and 2.] o Adds requirement that Board members be members-in-good-standing of the congregation. o Adds immediate Past President to Board. o Changed number of elected board members from 12 to 11 (Va ad hachinuch s formation took away requirements for separate school chair and youth activities chair positions, as well as the Midrasha position, all of which are now part of the Va ad). Added back a spot for the Corresponding Secretary which previously had been counted among the officers. o Modified to five or six, the number of board members leaving each year to account for the 11 members of the board. o Deletes specially designated organizational representatives This section referred to representatives from Sisterhood, Men s Club, the Orthodox Kehilla, and the Chevra Kadisha. Now representatives from the Orthodox Kehilla, and the Chevra are elected among the 11 Board members. Section 3 removes honorary officers. 2
3 Section 4 o Replaces bank or banks with bank or other financial institutions. o Adds and disposal of congregational funds and properties. o Deletes shall invest the funds of the Congregation in a reasonable and prudent manner. [This is now delegated to the Treasurer, Financial Secretary, and Finance Committee in Articles IX.6 and XII.3.a.] Section 5 deleted as it deems advisable as an extraneous comment. Section 6 meetings o Moved from the last to the second Wednesday of the month. o Formerly skipped July, now Board has the discretion to skip up to four meetings per year using one per quarter as the driving logic. o Changed quorum from 10 to 9 members o Formerly required majority vote, now decisions can be by consensus or majority vote, as determined by President. Section 7 special meetings o Added provision restricting business at a special meeting to items directly related to the stated reason and purpose for calling the meeting o Added that special meetings may also be called by board members Section 8 replacement after death or resignation of a Board member: unchanged Section 9 vote by proxy at board meetings now allowed at discretion of the President Section 10 congregational review of Board actions: deleted, as it would be lsubsumed by section 7. ARTICLE IX OFFICERS Section 1 o Current version now explicitly lists 1 st and 2 nd Vice-Presidents instead of Two Vice Presidents. o Deletes Corresponding Secretary, which is now counted among the non-officers of the board. Section 2 rights and duties of President o Language made gender neutral. o President may appoint someone else to run the board meetings o Committees subdivided into standing and ad hoc. [See Article XII.] o Previously, president appointed all committees whereas the proposed version indicates that the president appoints chairs of standing committees and all members of ad hoc committees. Section 3 in case President cannot continue for whatever reason, s/he is succeeded by the 1 st VP, and in turn by the 2 nd VP if necessary. Section 4 Recording Secretary: unchanged Old Section 5 Corresponding Secretary: deleted Section 5 (was Section 6) Financial Secretary: duties specified independent of Treasurer Section 6 (was Section 7) Treasurer o Some former duties (related to members accounts) moved to Financial Secretary o No longer need present all expenditures to the Board for approval o Changed audit requirements from annual to periodically Section 7 (was Section 8) o Executive Director and any designee of President added to authorized signers of checks Section 8 (was Section 9) terms of officers o Changed from 1 to 2 years o Added expectation that 1 st VP would succeed President and 2 nd VP would succeed 1 st VP. 3
4 o Limited president and vice presidents lconsecutive tenure in office to at most 2 terms. (Only previous restriction was a 3-consecutive-term limit for the President.), with an exception if Board approves it. Section 9 (was section 10) replacement of non-presidential incapacitated officer: unchanged. Section 10 added: Indemnification of Directors and Officers: o Most non-profit boards address the issue of liability insurance for Officers and Trustees. The Board has approved the purchase of D&O insurance, and thus requires an indemnification clause in the constitution. The language proposed is boilerplate language which will meet the indemnification requirement. ARTICLE X THE RABBI (was PULPIT) Section 1 appointment: deleted reference to Cantor or any other religious functionary, serving for more than 6 months. Section 2 (updating/expanding old Section 3) responsibilities/duties/privileges o Specifically identified as spiritual leader and halakhic authority of the Congregation o Charged to seek advice and guidance of the Board. o Made ex officio member of all committees. Section 3 (updating/expanding old Section 2) contract decisions: now starts process in the Executive Committee rather than starting at the board level (refer to Article X11, new section J for description of the Executive Committee) ARTICLE XI AUXILIARY ORGANIZATIONS Sections 1-3 unchanged Section 4 deleted because auxiliary organizations no longer have power to appoint Board members. They may nominate board members for election by the congregation (Article VII section 2) New: section 5: so that auxiliary representatives may serve on the board as ex officio at discretion of president, in addition to the elected representatives. ARTICLE XII COMMITTEES Section 1 Chairpersons o President shall appoint chairs of standing committees for two year terms, whereas terms for chairs was unclear in original constitution o President has complete authority to remove chairs at any time. o Added a term limit of three consecutive two-year terms, with exceptions approved by the board.
