The full story
The WISPA Board of Governors voted down a proposed amendment that would have changed an implementation date from September 1 to September 28. The clerk restated the amendment before the roll call: "So this is also a motion to amend the action previously taken by the board. This time, it's to amend the effective date from September 1 to September 28. And, again, it will require 8 votes to pass." The clerk then called the roll and later announced, "Motion fails with only 5 affirmative votes."
