Individuals may request that the Monthly Meeting decide whether a particular item should, or should not, be included in the appendices.
3. Maintain a record each year of requested and approved changes to each section of the Handbook. When revisions are approved, annotate the revised section with the date it was modified. Update the Library and clerk’s copy and e-version of the Handbook, and the clerks copy of the handbook, and make an appropriate effort to assure that all other copies of the handbook are updated.
