Robert's Rules

Welcome to The Basics of Robert’s Rules! If you’re part of a council or committee that follows Robert’s Rules of Order, understanding these procedures is crucial to running an effective meeting. Let’s break it down! Robert’s Rules provide a structured way to propose, amend, approve, or deny motions in a meeting. When followed correctly, they help ensure meetings run smoothly and decisions are legally supported. Let’s dive into some key rules! All discussion topics must be listed on the agenda. If it’s not there, it can’t be discussed. Want to add a topic? Contact the Chairperson or Director before the agenda is finalized. No official business happens until the Chair calls the meeting to order. Once they do, topics are discussed in the order they appear on the agenda. Some agenda items need discussion but not a motion, while others require a formal vote. When in doubt, it’s best to make a motion. Only one person speaks at a time. The Chair decides who has the floor. Everyone should get a turn before someone speaks again. Once a majority vote is reached, that’s the final decision—unless a new motion is made. Amendments and withdrawals also require a vote. Sometimes, interruptions are okay. "Point of Information" allows someone to share important facts, and "Point of Privilege" ensures the meeting stays on track. If there’s a tie and the Chair hasn’t voted, they cast the deciding vote. If they already voted and there’s still a tie, the motion fails. Unexpected situations happen! If you’re unsure how to proceed, online guides for Robert’s Rules can help. But in the moment, the Chair has the final say. Thanks for watching! Now you’re ready to participate in meetings like a pro!
