The Broad Bay Community Centre (BBCC) AGM is being held this Monday, 14th October 2024, at 7pm, as advised in our last newsletter back in August.  See the full Agenda below.

The main business of the AGM is to get approval for the new Constitution (Rules) in order to re-register the BBCC under the new Incorporated Societies Act 2022. The Act modernises the laws and the way societies need to operate.  

For the last few months a small team has been working hard on the new Constitution.  It has been put together using the MBIE “Constitution Builder”.  The new Constitution is lengthier than the old Rules but uses the new prescribed format and reflects what is required under the new legislation.

The team has consulted with people who use or have used the Centre, and also consulted with the Citizens Advice Bureau, Charities Services, Community Law and MBIE on several occasions throughout the process.  

Please note that you need to have paid your sub to be able to vote at the AGM … if you are not sure if you have paid, please contact Jane (email jane.ashman@otago.ac.nz or phone 0210 271 0950)
