If a member must miss a meeting, she or he shall provide written notification to the Chair in advance of such missed meeting or as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable and such member shall be recorded as "excused" for the meeting missed. In the event that a member is absent for three meetings in any one official Village year or without excuse for two consecutive meetings, the Chair shall notify the Board of Trustees in writing and the member may be deemed by the Board of Trustees to have resigned from the Board, and a replacement may be appointed for the balance of the term outstanding.
