The authority shall meet not less frequently than quarterly, and otherwise as
often as necessary for the orderly conduct of its affairs. If it sees fit to do so, it
may establish in its bylaws, or by resolution, four (4) or more fixed dates for
regular meetings at one (1) or more specified places, in which event any proper
business may come before the authority on such occasions, and it shall not be
necessary that the members be given notice thereof unless the chairman shall
deem it necessary or desirable that the day, place, or hour be changed,
whereupon notice to such effect shall be mailed to each member by the
chairman or secretary, by ordinary first-class mail, postage prepaid, not less
than one (1) week in advance. Regular meetings may be adjourned to convene
again at another time and place, if the facts are shown in a motion or resolution
adopted by a majority of those present and entered upon the minutes; and if
such be done, the adjourned session shall constitute a continuation of the
regular session without notice to absent members; but the motion or resolution
of adjournment may specify that every reasonable effort be made to give such
notice to absent members as time and circumstances may permit, whereupon
the secretary (or in his absence the chairman or any designated member) shall
make such effort and report the same and the success or failure thereof as to
each member, at the occasion of the adjourned session of the regular meeting.
Special meetings may be called by the chairman, vice chairman, secretary, or
any two (2) members upon notice of the time, place and business to be
transacted, similarly given; and special meetings may be adjourned in like
manner as in the case of regular meetings, except that the matters considered
shall be limited to such as are set forth in the notice of the special meeting.
Any member may waive notice orally or in writing at any time before, at, or
after any meeting; and the presence of a member at any meeting shall
constitute a waiver of notice unless such member tenders at such meeting a
written protest on the ground of want of sufficient notice.
Five (5) or more members shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business at any meeting, and a majority vote thereof shall be sufficient to
transact any business properly before the meeting. Any lesser number may
adjourn to reconvene at another time for failure to muster a quorum.
Immediately upon receiving notice of the election or appointment of all other
members, the chief state school officer shall call a meeting for organizational
purposes, to be held at Frankfort, Kentucky, at a time and place set forth in a
written notice mailed to each member, as set forth above. At this meeting, the
chief state school officer shall preside as temporary chairman, and the
authority shall elect from among the members a chairman, a vice chairman, a
secretary, and a treasurer, and define the duties thereof; or it may combine the
office of treasurer with any other office of the authority or with any position
created pursuant to KRS 168.080.
