Board of Directors

The Board of Directors shall be comprised of the two (2) elected Perch Base Officers, the Appointed Officers and the immediate past Base Commander. The Chairmen of the Base’s Standing Committees (if any) may be invited to participate in meetings of the Board of Directors. Participation by the Committee Chairmen is however, in an ex-officio advisory capacity. Only the elected officers, the Appointed Officers and the immediate past Base Commander may vote on issues before the Board of Directors, with the exception of the Base Commander who may only vote only to break a tie vote.

To pass, an issue must receive a simple majority of the BOD members present.

The Board of Directors shall have the control and general management of the affairs and business of the organization.

Any member of the Board of Directors may be removed from office for cause by a vote of 2/3 of the Base members. A replacement may be appointed, from the general membership, by the Base Commander or the sitting officer next in seniority, or the vacated duties may be absorbed or distributed to the remaining members as the Board may approve.

Executive Committee

Elected Officers - The Base elected officers are voted upon by the Base members. There is no requirement for a member quorum so a majority of those present at the election meeting shall constitute a victory. The Base Commander is elected for two (2) years. The Base Vice-Commander is also elected for two (2) years, however the terms of the Base Commander and Base Vice Commander overlap with Base Commander elections being held in odd years and Base Vice Commander elections being held in even years. The role of Past Commander is the immediate prior Base Commander. This role shifts with each new Commander elected.
