4. Conducting a Meeting See that everyone is seated comfortably. Have all necessary materials at hand, including the outline of business to be considered. Member should address the presiding officer at all times. The secretary should read the minutes of the previous meeting as the first order of business. To introduce a motion, a member should state, “I move…” Another member must agree with the validity of a motion, known as seconding it, before the body discusses the motion or votes on it. He does this by saying, “I second the motion to…” The Chair should restate the motion before the discussion and/or the vote. During the discussion, members may then ask the chair to recognize them so that they might make a statement about the issue.

5. Conducting a Meeting Amendments to the original motion may be made after the original motion is made and seconded. If an amendment is presented and seconded, it may be discussed and must be put to a vote. No other action regarding the original motion may be taken until the amendment is approved or denied. The second order of business after the minutes is committee reports. Committee reports are followed by unfinished business and then new business. A meeting may be closed by a member being recognized by the Chair and stating, “I move to adjourn.” If the motion is duly seconded and approved, the meeting is adjourned. Or, if there is no further business or objection, the Chair can declare that the meeting is adjourned.
