Council on Resolutions Results

Dear Rotarians of District 5010:

Rotary International’s Council on Resolution representatives voted online between October 15 and November 15, 2017.  Below are the voting results and the Resolutions that were passed will go to the Rotary International Board of Directors for their consideration.  The Board of Directors are not obligated to implement them but can do so if they deem them in Rotary’s best interest.

The Council on Legislation meets every three years to vote on proposed Enactments.  Enactments are different from Resolutions because once they are voted on and if they are passed by the Council, they become binding legislation.  The next Council on Legislation will meet in April 2019.  If you would like to submit an enactment, send it to District Governor Harry Kieling prior to December 15, 2017.
 
Resolutions are proposed annually and the deadline for 2018 is on June 30, 2018.  If you would like to submit a Resolution, please submit it for approval at District Governor Harry Kieling’s District Conference in Seward.
 
If you have any questions or need any additional information, contact me at rotaryjane@yahoo.com or (907) 299-1649.
 
Best Regards,
 
Jane Little
Past District Governor 2010-11
Council on Legislation Representative for District 5010
