The way we currently have it, if one of the officers goes inactive, then
the person below them picks up the responsibilities until a new election
can be held. According to our bylaws, that would be the second chapte3r
meeting after they officially go inactive. If the officer in question has
stated they will be going inactive, but it would take a fe weeks for it to
become official, then you would go from the time when they say they are
going inactive to the second chapter meeting. theperson below that
position would handle the vacant office's duties, but would not leave
their own position, so essentially they would be doing two jobs at once
(which could really stink depending on the office).
