MISASA Special General Meeting 6 Dec 7pm: LIVE RIGHT HERE

Postby alanmack » 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.

Ja jong "Speelseun"... die vet is nie net in die vuur nie maar ook in die rivier op die suide kant van die berg :lol:

Jokes aside... I am amazed at questions like : What does MISASA do for us? Where can I find out more of this...?

We have 3 platforms of electronic communication : The MISASA website : Microlighters forum : Facebook page (for social banter) and still members do not know of the ins and outs of recreational aviation. Maybe I should ask RAASA to include an A4 mailshot to "refresh" this for those who do not know where and what we are!

I am however amazed that there still are those members that do not know their ID numbers, e-mail addresses (those that have) and postal codes... YES IT IS TRUE but being the gentleman I am, I will not name and shame! All I want is the database to be correct and concise!

I will not be present during the meeting tommorrow, too much trike packing to do ^

Short and sweet....I vote we reverse the decision taken at the AGM in light of the many positive changes that have been made to it since that time.

Bundy votes Keep using Fundi. (at least for the next 12 months)

How many members would be a quorum?
How will you verify that the votes registered are those of MISASA members?
For the record, my vote is NO

I want to pay directly to MISASA and MISASA can pay the Aeroclub what they are (not) worth.
