[ECAdmin] REMINDER: Deadline for Decisional Participants' action on Fundamental Bylaw amendment

[Mary Wong]

Dear members of the Empowered Community Administration,

This note is just to place two dates on your calendars:

  *   First, 06.59 UTC, 21 July 2017 – this is the final day, for the five Decisional Participants who comprise the Empowered Community, to notify you as the Empowered Community Administration as to whether their respective community groups support the proposed Fundamental Bylaw amendment regarding transference of the Board Governance Committee’s responsibility for Reconsideration Requests to a new Board committee.
  *   Secondly, 06.59 UTC, 22 July 2017 – this is the expiration of the 24-hour period following the end of the decisional phase above, by which time the Empowered Community Administration needs to notify the ICANN Secretary as to whether the amendment has been approved by the Empowered Community, or if the approval process has been terminated due to lack of the requisite community approval.

As you know, approval of the Fundamental Bylaw amendment requires the support of at least three Decisional Participants, with no more than one Decisional Participant objecting.

Staff will send a similar reminder to the Chairs of each of the five Decisional Participants. We will also follow up with you toward the end of the decisional phase to ensure that we have the requisite formal notification letter in place for your approval.

Thanks and cheers
Mary
