TJ Moore and John O’Donnell presented a proposal to establish an Emergency Action Bi Law for the TASC Committee’s approval. TJ said an ‘Emergency Action’ could be used to take effect when quorums are not met at the TASC Meetings. He and John O’Donnell discussed and agreed an amendment to the constitution was not needed, instead they created a proposal for an Emergency Action Bi Law which could be passed by 2/3 majority of this committee. TJ said the committee would be able to hold a meeting under an Emergency Action and deliberate on any proposals that we may get, and decide what we want to do. But in order for us to take action on those decisions, we have to approve those decisions by the next meeting of quorum.

The proposal for the Emergency Action Bi Law states: Emergency action can be called upon whenever the committee does not have quorum and there is an issue to be decided. In the instance that emergency action is called, the members of the committee who are present can deliberate and make a decision on an issue. The decision that the committee makes under emergency action will be tabled until the next meeting when there is quorum and then that decision will be voted on by the now present committee members.

TJ asked the committee members to consider approving the Emergency Action Bi Law. Clayton Moreau motioned to approve the Emergency Action Bi Law. Dr. Todd Furman seconded. The committee voted to approve and motion carries.

CoTASCO Update
Shannon Davis reported one of the new printers was installed in the Holbrook Lab after last week’s meeting and after this meeting the second printer will be installed. Shannon commented the new printer is operating excellently, much better than the other printers.

Dr. Furman asked Shannon if he had any idea how other schools handled fees charged for printing. Shannon responded this system is set up with the option to add a pay station and he thought some schools use the one-card system while other schools use cash, but he did not know how much other school systems charged for printing.

Tim Rye motioned to table discussion of budget review until next meeting. Clayton Moreau seconded. The committee voted to approve and motion carries.

Adjournment

The committee voted to approve and the meeting was adjourned at 2:48p.m.
