According to the TBYC constitution notices of motion that may affect the TBYC constitution itself must be presented to TBYC membership 30 days prior to the AGM. The 2017 AGM is scheduled for November 30, 2017.

Any TBYC member may present a motion for consideration. The following three motions are generally supported by the TBYC Board and have specifically been presented by the movers and seconders mentioned.

Preamble: The three motions below all relate to a common ideal, which is to streamline TBYC Board operations. The first motion suggests elimination of a director position, the second motion reassigns the responsibilities of the eliminated director position, and the third motion reduces quorum needed for TBYC Board meetings on the grounds that with director position eliminations quorum is increasingly difficult to achieve.

Motion 1: That the number of directors be reduced from 11 to 10. (Article 5.1) Moved by Bob Vander Ploeg, seconded by Chris Winn.

Motion 2: That the Properties Committee director be eliminated and duties moved to the Rear Commodore. (Article 6.7 (I)) Moved by Bob Vander Ploeg, seconded by Chris Winn.

Motion 3: That the Quorum at a Director's Meeting be reduced to seven Board Members, one of which shall be a Flag Officer. (Article 5.4) Moved by Bob Vander Ploeg, seconded by Chris Winn.
