Special Called Meeting

District Council 16 Bylaws Ratification Vote 

The IUPAT General Executive Board has directed that we re-vote the DC 16 Bylaws at each Local Union Meeting night. Given that the DC 16 Bylaws have already been mailed out to the membership of the Council twice and the revote will be upon the same document, the GEB is not requiring that a full copy be resent, however, at the bottom of the page, you will find a QR Code that will link you to the complete document of proposed changes. These Bylaws are being re-voted on at your Local Union Meeting night to specifically give members the ability to consider, debate, and vote upon the question of adopting proposed changes to the Bylaws. Members will be given an opportunity to debate and ask questions starting at the times, dates, and locations listed below for each local regarding the proposed changes to the DC16 Bylaws. Your Business Agents will be prepared to answer questions on these Bylaws. 

These Bylaws contain all the provisions that were enacted at the 33rd General Convention to bring the District Council into conformity with those actions and the International Constitution, which became effective January 1, 2025. 

A Special Called DC16 Bylaws Ratification Vote is scheduled and called for on the times, dates and locations of your Local Union Meeting for all DC16 members. 

Members are encouraged to vote at their Local Union Meeting on the date, time, and Location below. With appropriate identification, members may vote at another Local Union’s meeting other than their own, but they will not be permitted to actively participate in debate.
