PART 1605_SELECTIVE SERVICE SYSTEM ORGANIZATION--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 1605.56  Organization and meetings.

    Each local board shall elect a chairman and vice-chairman at least 
every two years. A majority of the membership of the board shall 
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. A majority of the 
members present at any meeting at which a quorum is present shall decide 
any question or classification. Every member present, unless 
disqualified, shall vote on every question or classification. In case of 
a tie vote on any question or classification, the board shall postpone 
action on the question or classification until it can be decided by a 
majority vote at the next meeting. If the question or classification 
remains unresolved at the next meeting, the file will be transferred for 
classification in accord with Sec. 1605.55(c). If any member is absent 
so long as to hamper the work of the board, the chairman, a member of 
the board, or a Selective Service compensated employee shall report that 
fact to the Director of Selective Service and appropriate action shall 
be taken. If through death, resignation, or other cause, the membership 
of a board falls below the prescribed number, it shall continue to 
function provided a quorum of the prescribed membership is present at 
each official meeting.
