I had to attend at least two training sessions ahead of time that covered all the paperwork and bureaucracy involved. Some questions were still not resolvable and the people on the Executive Board all gave me different answers because even they didn't understand the system.

It was meant to be obtuse. That way lawyers can litigate into eternity.

Have I got a story for you!

Several years and two county Executive Boards ago, the county chairman called a meeting. He didn't bother to read the bylaws and didn't give the proper amount of legal notice ahead of time. The meeting was challenged and had to be re-announced (with proper notice) and re-held.

Now comes the fun part. They tried to cover up the fact they they screwed up and didn't read the bylaws by claiming the bylaws were uncleeeeeaaaar (pronounce this like Michael Savage). So they called yet another meeting to amend and fix the bylaws. In the process of "fixing" the bylaws, which were already crystal clear, the people who prepared the amendment apparently failed to read what they were amending and actually introduced an ambiguity.
