Common use of Minimum Participation Requirement Clause in Contracts

Minimum Participation Requirement. In order to be counted for quorum purposes at a meeting of the membership as a whole or Class meeting, a WECC Member must actively participate (by attending in person, sending an alternate, or voting absentee) in at least one WECC meeting (including meetings of the Board, committees and subcommittees) each year. At least two weeks prior to the WECC Annual Meeting, WECC staff will send a notice to any Member that has, according to organizational records, not satisfied this minimum participation requirement within the previous year. The notice will inform the Member that in order to be counted as an active Member of WECC for voting and quorum purposes, the Member must at a minimum either register for an attend the Annual Meeting and associated Class meetings or participate in the Annual Meeting and associated Class meetings by casting an absentee ballot. If the Member does not meet this minimum participate requirement, the Member will be considered an “inactive” Member until its active status is restored by participation in a WECC Annual Meeting. An inactive Member will not be counted toward establishing a quorum of the membership as a whole or of a Class, and an inactive Member will not be entitled to vote at WECC meetings until the Member is reinstated to “active” status by attending in person, sending an alternate or voting absentee at an Annual Meeting and associated Class meetings. An applicant for WECC membership or a WECC Member may at any time self-designate itself an inactive Member. Such designation will be effective until the Member is reinstated to “active” status.
