Bylaws
A proposed Bylaws Change has been made to accomodate online meetings. Comments are being taken until December 18, 2020. The current proposal is availabe here.
On August 15, 2018 an amendment was made to the previous QVCOG Bylaws that became effective on May 19, 2018. The amendment to the bylaws is as follows: (C4) "The Full Member's membership will be terminated at the end of the calendar year in which the Notice of Intent to Withdraw is provided." (C5) - Eliminated.

on April 18, 2018 an amendment was made to the QVCOG Bylaws and the Bylaws became effective on May 19, 2018. Prior, the Proposed Bylaws changes were reviewed at a Special Meeting on January 31, 2018 and were introduced at the February 21, 2018 QVCOG Board of Directors meeting. A public comment period between February 21, 2018 and March 30, 2018 netted one comment and no modification to the proposed amendment. During the required 30 period for objection, a provision of the then existing Bylaws, one municipality filed an objection. The Bylaws became effective May 19, 2018 having received objection from less than 1/3 of the members.
In October 2016, Quaker Valley Council of Governments Board of Directors approved a motion convening an Ad Hoc Bylaws Committee to address needs for greater clarity, accountability and roles and responsibilities. A year-long review was performed prior to a January 31, 2018 presentation to the members. Many thanks to the Board of Directors, Managers & Secretaries Committee, and The Ad-Hoc Bylaws Review Committee:
