Simsbury Aging & Disability Commission postpones membership vote due to lack of quorum
Summary
Commission members said they could not accept minutes or vote to add new members because a quorum was not present. The group discussed the unclear status of member Kate and agreed to address membership questions when enough members are present.
At the start of the meeting a commission member said, "there is no public audience, obviously, and we can't accept the minutes because we don't have a quorum." The lack of quorum prevented the body from voting on subcommittee membership or on adding a new member who had been discussed previously.
Members discussed next steps for membership: confirming whether Kate has officially resigned and arranging a future meeting with sufficient attendance to vote. One member said the commission needs "to talk about our membership, maybe, discussing with Kate why I'm not exactly sure why Kate hasn't officially resigned." The group did not take any formal action at this meeting; members agreed to reconvene and address membership votes when quorum requirements are met.
The meeting transcript shows several members were excused (Libby and Mike) and that Cheryl and Valerie were expected to possibly arrive late, which the commission noted as contributing to the lack of quorum.
