Motion: Addition of Website Administrator to SCANZ Corporate Officers Rules

Add a sentence to Part II 6.a

"A Registrar and Treasurer shall be appointed as Corporate Officers of the Society by 2/3 majority vote of the Committee.

A Corporate Officer may be removed for specific and stated just reasons, including but not limited to failure to carry out their specified duties, subject to a 2/3-majority vote of the Committee."
