Consider: Revision to Senior Advisory Commission bylaws The Senior Advisory Commission bylaws currently state that "officers shall be elected by a majority vote in the regular June session of each year."

A motion was made to adopt the change as recommended. Motion: B. Kyle Second: Baltimore Ayes: Alexander, Baltimore, Boland (Alternate 2), B. Kyle, M. Kyle, C. Montague, G.
