Removal of Chapter Officer The Chapter Executive Council in its discretion may remove any chapter officer for dereliction of duties. Grounds for removal include unexcused absences from scheduled meetings.

Quorum Requirements A quorum must exist prior to conducting official business. Chapters may adopt local Standing Rules employing different quota requirements and/or suspension of quorum procedures provided their Standing Rule is approved by the Division Executive Council prior to implementation. Chapter size/Number of AFSA Members who MUST Present 501—or more20 201— — NOTE: If a quorum is not present, see AFSAM 100-2, Principle 5, Section 10c, for guidance on suspending quorum requirements.
