Due to an unfortunate clash, my club AGM is on at the same time as club racing and a lot of people have chosen to ride their bikes over attending a boring meeting.
The secretary is a bit unclear on proxy voting procedure and suggested that a written vote with license number would be okay. Potentially I could end up with a lot of proxy votes that could change the outcome of some things, so I want to make sure it is done as correctly as possible given that the meeting is tonight. Can anyone help out here?
I would have thought something along the lines of this would be okay:
I (name) of (address), being a fully paid member of (club name), and over the age of 18 years, appoint (proxy name) of (proxy address), being a fully paid member of (club name), as my proxy to vote on my behalf at the (club name) Annual General Meeting to be held on (date).
With regard to the following motions listed in the notice of motions (document name) circulated on (date), my proxy is authorised to vote as follows:
Motion x: For/Against
Motion y: For/Against
Etc
Signature
Name
Date
MTBA License No.
MTBA License expiry
Have I missed anything? Is this overkill?
I guess that normally this would have to go to the secretary some time in advance before the AGM is held, but since the meeting is tonight and no written notice was given to club members of the AGM I figure there is some leverage to bend the rules here and bring along a pile of proxy votes on the day.
Any help appreciated!
