MISASA Special General Meeting 6 Dec 7pm: LIVE RIGHT HERE
Posted: Mon Dec 03, 2012 5:44 pm
The minutes of our AGM last October are on the MISASA Microlighters thread and on the MISASA website. The members in AGM took the decision to reject Fundi. A special general meeting is required to overturn a decision of the membership. Yes, believe it or not we are a membership association and are bound by the membership's decisions. At the moment I am somewhat bewildered by the variety of alternative interpretations on the status quo.
The Aero Club have ignored MISASA's notifications. Ok , so relax - this is not new. We gave them notice at the AGM that we will not use Fundi. I have too received notices to pay them. I have also received notice from them that the system is not working and that the date of acceptance of payment has been postponed. I hear tell that others may not and that others will not use Fundi.
Let me explain - at the Aero Club we made a stand on the non-performance of the system. Others stood up and protested it's beauty! It did however transpire that these satisfied suitors did in fact not use critically important services that Fundi is supposed to provide. We gave Fundi the responsibility of managing our database. The address list is, at best not usable - and as a result I have had a magazine sitting in my garage for a few months waiting for an address list.
After the Aero Club AGM - section after section - expressed concerns and offered examples of their problems - this has gone on from the after meeting "Castle Talk" to the last e-mail that I got 30 minutes ago.
Eish! Yes, I am bewildered - it seems that the facts are..... ? but ..... I hope that they materialise so that we can take a decision that is not based on the latest rumour.
SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING OF MISASA
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN ON THIS 6TH DAY OF NOVEMBER 2012 THAT ON THE 6TH DAY OF DECEMBER AT 7PM A SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING OF MISASA SHALL BE CONVENED TO DISCUSS THE AGM DECISION TO NOT USE THE FUNDI SYSTEM. THIS MEETING SHALL FOLLOW AN ELECTRONIC FORMAT AND IT SHALL BE HELD ON THE MICROLIGHTERS FORUM WHERE A VOTING POLL SHALL DETERMININE THE DECISION OF THE MEMBERS ON A REVIEW OF THIS MATTER. SUCH OTHER BUSINESS AS IS RAISED UNDER "GENERAL" BY A MEMBER IN GOOD STANDING SHALL BE CONSIDERED BY THE MEMBERSHIP WHO SHALL VOTE THEREON BY ESTABLISHED ELECTRONIC FORMAT.
So - there you have it - we modernised the MISASA constitution in line with suggestions at the Heidelberg AGM and which were supported by all. Let us now see if the membership is represented by the four corners of SA!
Looking forward to meeting you at the meeting right here - our first online meeting!!
Please do post questions here - these can be answered before the time - at the meeting we will call for you to post a "Hello" to record attendance and we will then post a poll vote to finalise matters on the agenda.
