BEDF: VOTING METHOD

Except on procedural matters, all votes of the School Committee will be taken by a voice vote and the ayes and nays will be recorded in the minutes; if the vote is unanimous only that fact need be recorded.

All actions will require a majority vote of all members except as state law, Robert's Rules of Order. Newly Revised, or policies of this Committee require a larger majority. A majority of the members of the School Committee will constitute a quorum.

A two-thirds vote of the Committee membership will be required to suspend parliamentary rules of order.
