This is an important meeting where a new Constitution will be put to the meeting. This Constitution is an adaptation of the Dept of Fair Trading Model Constitution for Incorporated Associations. The adaptations make the constitution more suitable for a small community group, allowing for a small committee and more informality at meetings and for membership.

For acceptance by the Dept of Fair Trading a 75% majority of those attending and entitled to vote must be reported as voting for the Constitution. Only financial members are entitled to vote. Persons attending the AGM who are not currently financial will be able to pay the nominal $10 membership at the start of the meeting.
