Annual general meetings are held once a year between September and November. Its is like any other meeting but also members get to vote who will members of the committee for the next twelve months. They are held at the same place as the general meetings.
Nominations can be made before the AGM to the current committee.
Members should remember to up-date their membership prior to the AGM, as only financial members can nominate committee members, stand for committee or vote at the AGM.
It is often misunderstood what the role, purpose and who the committee is, however the principle of the committee is quite simple.
Air-Stream Wireless Incorporated is a group of committed people who have pooled their resources (eg: time, membership fees, donations and equipment) in order to build and connect to, a wireless network across Adelaide.
The committee are members who are voted by other members each year to perform the following on their behalf:
- Represent the organisation (members) to the public.
- Safeguard the members assets, ensuring they are only used to further the aims of the group.
- Coordinate membership and assets to achieve the groups goals
- Perform administrative duties on behalf of the groups members
Note: Committee members are volunteers and receive no commercial benefit from their role or work.
