The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is a legal requirement for CKUT as outlined in Section 4 of our Bylaws. It must happen within 6 months of the end of the previous fiscal year, which generally places it at the end of November each year. The exact date is decided upon by Steering (CKUT’s collective management committee) and the Board of Directors (BoD) and must be conveyed to the membership 21 to 60 days before the meeting.
The primary function of the AGM is to share the past fiscal year’s financial reports with the membership, appoint the auditor for the upcoming fiscal year, share reports from the Board and staff about the activities of the preceding year, and elect committee members to the Steering Committee, Programming Committee, and Board Nominating Committee. It is also a time at which member motions, which must be made in advance of the meeting, are voted upon, and various other matters can be discussed.
It is a moment for all of the station’s members and other interested parties to see what’s been going on at CKUT for the previous year, particularly with respect to finances, and for Active Members (defined in the Bylaws) to nominate themselves for committees, which is one of the best ways to get involved in the day-to-day workings of the station.
The AGM is open to all, but only Active Members can vote.
