At the WCG Annual Meeting, held December 2, 2019 at the Platou Community Center, changes to the bylaws were discussed, voted and approved. Prior to the meeting, the recommended changes had been presented to and approved by the Westbury Civic Club and the Westbury Area Improvement Corp. (WAIC), as required.
The two changes are summarized below.
- Formatting changes were added to divide topics into numbered Articles, which in effect added headings and increased the readability of the document.
- The date for the Annual Meeting was changed to November, with election of new officers to be held at that time. Elections and transitioning new officers in the fall instead of after the first of the calendar year will go far to let new officers be ready for WCG Gardener Agreement renewals in February.
