ACT Rescue and Foster (ARF) Inc - Notice, Agenda and other Information for members about the 2020 Annual General Meeting The Annual General Meeting is scheduled to be held on Tuesday 24 November 2020 at 7.00pm. Please note that the AGM was advertised in the ARF October Members’ email as being held on 23 November 2020.  Given the current situation in the ACT and that this has remained reasonably positive for the ACT the Committee felt that it was possible to conduct a face to face AGM.  However, we were unable to secure a venue for 23 November 2020, hence the date change. The venue for the AGM on 24 November is the Tuggeranong Seniors Centre, 101 Cowlishaw Street, Greenway. Attached are the Agenda for the 2020 AGM, minutes of the previous AGM (24 November 2019), Committee nomination form and proxy form. All positions on the Committee are declared vacant.  Completed poxy forms and nomination forms should be emailed to [email protected] Nomination forms must be received no later than Tuesday 27 October 2020. Proxy forms must be received no later than 24 hours before the AGM (7.00pm 23 November 2020). One of the agenda items is a Special Resolution to amend the ARF Rules to comply with new legislation.  We have taken the opportunity to also tidy up membership categories and requirements (given there is a zero cost to membership), wording about the ARF Gift Fund and surplus property, some numbering and to allow future 'remote' meetings. The draft amended Rules and an Explanatory Memorandum are available on the ARF Website here. This link also takes you to the existing ARF Rules.  The Explanatory Memorandum for the proposed Rule change is also attached to this email. At the start of the item on the Special Resolution we hope to have a short briefing by our
