Bylaws for SID Greater Dayton Chapter (DA) as of 26 October 2007: The new SIDDA bylaws implement even the most recent SID bylaws & policies and embrace & account for the availability of modern information technologies more extensively than any other set of SID Chapter bylaws. History of SIDDA bylaws: The original SIDDA bylaws were dated 27 January 1987 and were approved during chapter formation and, by 2007, were no longer consistent with SID Bylaws, Policies and Procedures, could not be amended, and require all communication to be via US mail. From 2005-7 this matter was been discussed at several SIDDA Chapter Business Meetings and by the Chapter Director at the SID BoD meeting in Sep 06. From these discussions it was determined that the best path forward was to update the SIDDA bylaws by replacing them with a completely new set. The draft of this new set was accomplished by the Chapter Director, Darrel Hopper with inputs from the previous and current Chapter Chairs. Comments from the SID Bylaws Committee Chairman, Allan Kmetz were obtained and incorporated. On 15 May 07 the proposed new bylaws were submitted by then Chapter Chair Jim Byrd to all SIDDA members whose email address is on file at www.sid.org . A revised draft was submitted to the SID BoD at their 20 May 07 meeting to initiate the formal process of SID approval via the SID Bylaws Committee. The new bylaws were sent to SIDDA members for an up-or-down “sense-of-the-chapter” vote over the summer of 2007; all votes received were n favor of the new bylaws without further change. On 18 Oct 07 the SIDDA Executive Committee voted to submit the proposed new SIDDA bylaws to the SID Bylaws Committee for approval; this submission was made on 19 Oct 07. On 26 Oct 07 the SID Bylaws Chair, Allan R. Kmetz, notified SIDDA Director Darrel Hopper the new bylaws were approved effective that day.
