Following the Annual General Meeting we as the Board of Directors are pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Stuart Davies as Chief Executive Officer of the Gosford Golf Club.
Stuart will commence in this role permanently as from the 1st of November 2016 taking over from Greg Harrison and Paul Scholberg whom have shared this role over the past 12 months.
At the Annual General Meeting a motion was passed to reduce the number of Directors from the current nine to seven. This motion relates to Article 41 of the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association and By-Laws.
Article 41 will now read:
The Board shall consist of a President, a Vice-President, a Captain, a Treasurer and three (3) other Board members.
Following the lodging with and approval by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission this shall become part of our constitution.
Earlier the Board had passed a motion to change Article 10 0f the By-Laws. This was posted on the notice board in the corridor of the members’ entrance. This change does not require the consent of the general membership.
This will bring us in line with the electronic age and we encourage members to provide us with their email address.
Article 10 will now read:
In the event that the number of candidates nominated for any position on the Board exceeds the number required to be elected, a ballot shall be held prior to the Annual General Meeting as provided for. Ballot papers shall be emailed or posted to members eligible to vote for the election of the Board of Directors, for completion and return either by mail or delivered to the office of the Club during office hours prior to closing date.
