DECISION MAKING FOR THE FUTURE YCC

• It was decided that all decisions of the YCC would be made through a consensus building process. The YCC desires to make every effort to reach consensus within the group.  In the event no consensus can be reached, the majority will rule.  A 2/3 vote of the attending members will be effective in solidifying an important decision.  However, no decisions would be made without adequately notifying all members of the YCC in advance so there would be ample discussion, preparation time and the opportunity to attend the session designated for consensus building and a vote, if necessary.
