SELSDON
RESIDENTS’ ASSOCIATION
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Will be held on Tuesday 13th March 2018 at 8pm
at Church hall, St John the
Divine, Upper Selsdon Road
Selsdon
residents are invited to attend this annual opportunity to meet the SRA
Committee, local councillors and local Police to talk about your neighbourhood.
We have two Committee vacancies to be filled this year. We also have a Special
Resolution to agree clarifications/amendments to the SRA Rules (see below). The
AGM Agenda and Annual report will be placed in the February Gazette.
The AGM lasts about an hour, with a chance for drinks
and chat afterwards. We do hope you can join us and perhaps bring a neighbour.
We do enjoy meeting you all. Please arrive in good time to read the SRA Rules,
2017 minutes and financial accounts.
Please mark this on your calendar now so you don’t
forget.
***Special Resolution***
This is a notice of our proposal, by Special Resolution,
to make changes to the SRA Rules of the Association. This will be item 9 of the
March AGM agenda. This Rule change proposal is to facilitate the SRA’s
application to HM Revenue and Customs for Charitable status. In response to our
recent submission the HMRC made it clear that changes to our current Rules were
required to meet their criteria. As well as including the HMRC’s suggested
changes we are also taking the opportunity to carry out a general tidy and
update which includes reordering some of the paragraphs. We believe that these
small changes do not negatively affect the original intention, character or
principles of the current Rules. The
proposed updated Rules (dated 2018) are attached below this notice for your
attention.
We have also produced a detailed breakdown of the changes and a copy of the current Rules - available below. This breakdown, as
well as the current and the proposed updated Rules, will also be available at
the AGM meeting.
