Section 3. Operational costs shall be shared according to a method agreed upon by majority decision of the Board of <br />Directors. The costs could be met by membership dues. These costs could include Users Group administrative costs, purchase <br />of liability insurance, and others as appropriate. <br />Section 4. Membership Fee: New Members shall pay a one-time membership fee of $500 to the Users Group for the calendar <br />year in which they are accepted into the User Group. The amount of this fee shall be reviewed and set annually by the Board <br />of Directors for new Members. <br />Section 5. Annual Membership Dues: Members shall commit to payment of Annual Membership Dues, except where limited by <br />State Statutes. <br />Section 6. Special Projects Assessments: Members who wish to enter into special projects and consultations shall present <br />proposals to the Board for review. Examples of special projects could be cooperative training or consortium purchase of <br />software. Upon approval by the Board, those Members who are part of the project will be assessed to meet the cost of the <br />project. <br />Section 7. Billings to the Members are due and payable no later than 60 days after the receipt of the invoice. In the event of a <br />dispute as to the amount of a billing, a Member must nevertheless make payment as billed to preserve membership status. <br />The Member may make payment subject to its right to dispute the bill and exercise any remedies available to it. Failure to pay <br />a billing within 60 days results in suspension of voting privileges of the Member Director. Failure to pay a billing within 120 <br />days is grounds for termination of membership, but the Users Group's right to receive payment survives termination of <br />membership. <br />ARTICLE XI. TERM <br />Section 1. The Term of this Agreement is January 1, 2018, through December 31, 2020. <br />Section 2. Based on the annual review of the operating procedures within the Agreement conducted by the Board, a new <br />Agreement will be developed and circulated at least three months prior to December 31, 2020 and be agreed upon and signed <br />on or before December 31, 2020. <br />ARTICLE XII. TERMINATION <br />Each Member shall have the right to terminate its membership and participation in the Users Group by formal resolution of the <br />Member's organization and communicated to the Board in writing. However, the Member is still obligated to its financial <br />commitments for the year during which termination of membership occurs. <br />These commitments include: <br />(i) Any balance of the Annual Membership Dues. This commitment applies to all Members; <br />(ii) Any balance owing on Special Projects Assessments. This commitment applies to Members which have entered into any <br />special project agreement(s). <br />Termination of membership prior to expiration of the Agreement shall make the Governmental Unit ineligible to re -join the <br />User Group during the Term of this Agreement. <br />ARTICLE XIII. DISSOLUTION <br />Section 1. The Users Group may be dissolved by a two-thirds vote of its Members in good standing. Dissolution is mandatory <br />when the Secretary has received certified copies of resolutions adopted by the governing bodies of the required number of <br />Members requesting dissolution. <br />
