Roll Call – Bradley

Motion by Fletcher to approve the meeting minutes of August 11, 2009 as corrected, seconded by Gastley. Motion approved unanimously.

AKC Delegate Voting on September 15, 2009 - Fletcher noted that the Board did not make it clear as to how it would like Kelly (AKC Delegate) to vote, with regards to the AKC Group realignment issue. Fletcher made a motion for Kelly to  vote “No” on the group realignment as a whole, and to do so by having a roll call vote “for” or “against” by name.
Kelly commented that this vote could be difficult to accomplish and in the Constitution of Bylaws of AKC, no such action has been outlined. Fletcher requested Kelly to ask for the roll call vote since the names would be published in the minutes of the Gazette and everyone would gain an idea of voting status.

Motion was made by Nix to adjourn, seconded by Jackson. Motion approved unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 8:31 p.m. (EST).

Respectfully submitted,
Lynda Bradley
BTCA Recording Secretary
