The board shall hold all special and regular meetings of the board at locations that are within the boundaries of the district or that are within the boundaries of a county in which the district is located, in whole or in part, or in any county so long as the meeting location is not farther than twenty miles from the district boundaries. The board may waive the provisions of this section governing the location of meetings only if the proposed change of location of a meeting of the board appears on the agenda of a regular or special meeting of the board and if the board adopts a resolution stating the reason for which a meeting of the board is to be held in a location other than under the provisions of this section and further stating the date, time, and place of the meeting.

(2)

Intentionally left blank —Ed.

(a)

The board of trustees of Colorado mountain college, without holding a meeting, may take an action that is otherwise required or permitted to be taken at a board meeting if:

(II)

A board member does not demand in writing that the action described in the notice be discussed in a regular or special board meeting;

The date by which each board member must respond; and

(III)

That failure to respond by the date stated in the notice has the same effect as voting against the action stated in the notice.

For purposes of this subsection (2), communications are not effective until received.
