The IOA Board, with advice from IOA's legal counsel and parliamentarian, has concluded that there would not be a reasonable amount of time to have a discussion on the proposed changes and conduct a vote on each resolution during a single meeting. These meetings are the last opportunity members have to discuss the proposals before the next vote.
