I. Call to Order at 3:10 pm
II. Approval of the February 21th meeting minutes. Approved with the following correction. “will establish guidelines” instead of “with a report”.
III. Discussion and Debate regarding CRAEA proposal
Last meeting – two procedural errors were discovered. First, motions at last meeting were made to postpone debate and establish ad hoc committees.
Senate should not link a motion to postpone with a separate motion.
The second procedural error was to treat the motion to postpone as non- debatable. Although a motion to table is not debatable, a motion to postpone is.
o James Meyer motioned to postpone debate on CRAEA seconded by Tomas Gedeon.
§ Motion was debated.
§ Motion to end debate – Moved James Martin, seconded Robb Larson. Voted and passed to end debate.
§ Vote on the motion to postpone debate on the CRAEA proposal was called, none opposed and no abstentions. Motion passed.
o Tomas Gedeon motioned to form a joint committee, (FS, DC, and RC) that would establish guidelines on the approval, review and sun downing centers. Motion was seconded.
