The Board of Directors reviews the delinquent member accounts at each Board meeting. A significant number of members allow their accounts to be in arrears routinely. Just to refresh memories, the Constitution of the Club requires members to pay any indebtedness within 90 days (see the following Sections of the Constitution:
A member who fails to pay any indebtedness due this club within 90 days after a statement of the same has been rendered may, by action of the board of directors, forfeit the member's good standing and shall so remain until such indebtedness is paid in full or the matter of indebtedness is otherwise resolved to the satisfaction of the board of directors. Only members in good standing may exercise the voting privileges and hold office in this club.
Section 5. Suspension and Forfeiture of Membership:
a. A member may be expelled from the club or suspended for a definite or indefinite period of time, by a two-thirds vote of the entire board of directors for any violation of this constitution, or for any of the following reasons:
(1) Failure to pay any indebtedness to the club for a period of 90 days after a statement of the same has been rendered.
(2) Any conduct which, in the opinion of the board of directors, is likely to be detrimental to the good order, interest, or character of the club.
The Board asks members to be more diligent in maintaining their accounts. Recurring monthly payments through PayPal can be created (currently five members are paying via this mechanism). Other members have requested annual invoices and make just one payment per year.
