Extraordinary Virtual Executive Meeting held by TIRRA during COVID19

A motion by the President proposed to postpone the March AGM (as specified in our bylaws), until end of May reassessment of COVID-19 situation. Motion seconded by Vicki Walker. Unanimously approved by TIRRA Executive.

Thetis Island Residents' and Ratepayers' Association (TIRRA)

 TIRRA has researched BC Societies regulations (Section 71 of the Societies Act) and determined an AGM may be delayed to a later date within the year, as long as completed by December 31st. Although the website does not state a society can change a date of AGM that is specified in their bylaws (TIRRA's bylaws specifically state March of each year), the TIRRA board unanimously approved suspension of the AGM for this year due to extraordinary circumstances impacting our community. 

 We commit to holding a meeting that enables inclusivity, and ability for all members to have a voice. This is difficult at this time with social distancing legislation. We thereby inform our membership that we are delaying the meeting for review at end of May. 

 Members will be advised of any further updates via espokes and the ferry bulletin board.  

 In the interim, please visit thetisisland.net for Minutes of the TIRRA Executive Meeting

held in January, as well as individual committee reports. 

Be well, and Be Safe!

President, TIRRA
