Proposed Bylaw Amendment
At the Board’s June Meeting, the Board approved to present proposed bylaw amendments to the membership for a vote during the 2025 Annual Election of Directors and Bylaw Amendment Vote.
The PDPOA bylaws have changed incrementally since its inception resulting in inconsistencies and sometimes confusing language. Some articles did not align with SC statute or the PDPOA covenants. This proposed amendment represents a comprehensive review of the bylaws as a whole to: use consistent labels; add, expand, or clarify some headings and subheadings; simplify language; delete certain unnecessary provisions; make better use of technology; align with SC statute and PDPOA covenants; and correct errors. Additional proposed changes aim to improve management and governance of the Association.
Explanations for changes are provided inline throughout the proposed amendment. This amendment will provide the PDPOA and its members a clear and up-to-date set of bylaws to improve understanding of the articles, and facilitate good governance and management of the Association.
Ballots will be sent by mail and/or email no later than September 1, 2025. Voting opens September 1 and closes September 30, 2025.
