Second. Karen Baum. 5 Ayes.
The next teleconference meeting will be held January 22, 2003, 12 Noon, EST.
The Board met in executive session with attorney Joe Fonfara. The BOD
requested a letter be drafted to several ILR members involved an investigation
of possible fraud against the Registry. Motion: Art Kennel. Joe Fonfara and Jan
Wassink will develop procedures for dealing with violations of registry policies
and application of sanctions for members found to be in violation of ILR
policies and procedures. Second. Jack Moore. 5 Ayes.
- Maxxam Contract: The procedure is on schedule. FTA cards are now being
returned to the office for testing. There was discussion regarding ways to
simplify the instructions for drawing blood to make it easier for members.
- Software Improvements: Alan and Jan are working on the improvements and
making headway but it is very time consuming. They hope to have the new
software in place before January 1, 2003.
- There was discussion of the cross-bred registry the requirements for
animals to be moved from the cross-bred to the full registered status. While
no decision was made the directors felt that moving the requirement from 7/8
to 15/16 llama to qualify for full registered status might be advisable at
this time rather than to deny entry of cross-bred progeny into the Registry
forever. There was some discussion of closing the Registry. Art Kennel
suggested discussion of both issues that involved pros and cons so the BOD
could have further discussion. Jan suggested we might consider asking for
member input before making a decision.
- The name for the new enhanced DNA parent verified certificate was
discussed but no decision was reached.
Motion: Sally Rucker adjourn meeting. Second: Karen Baum. 5 Ayes. Meeting
adjourned at 3:18 PM, EST.
Respectfully submitted,
Sally Taylor
