Rotary’s Council on Legislation approved US$1 per year in-

crease in per capita dues, removed limits on e-clubs, permitted

satellite clubs, changed “new generations” to Youth Service, al

lowed participation in projects to count toward club attendanc

Representatives from Rotary’s 532 dis-tricts met in downtown Chicago 21-26April, approving a number of measuresdesigned to strengthen Rotary, increasemembership, and enhance the organiza-

tion’s capacity to serve. 

The Council on Legislation meets everythree years to consider changes to the

policies that govern Rotary Internationaland its member clubs.

This year’s Council accepted an increase of US$1 per yearin per capita dues, removed limits on e-clubs, permitted sat-ellite clubs, and changed the name of the fifth Avenue of 

Service to “Youth Service.” 

The dues increase means Rotary clubs will pay Rotary Inter-national annual per capita dues of $54 in 2014-15, $55 in2015-16, and $56 in 2016-17. Dues for 2013-14 had al-

ready been set to $53.

Representatives approved several measures that increaseflexibility, including one that allows an unlimited number of 

e-clubs.

The Council also approved satellite clubs, whose membersmeet at a different time and location from their parent clubbut are still considered members of the parent club. Themeasure is intended to make it easier for members to de-

velop the core for a new club.

And in support of experimentation, the representatives in-creased the number of clubs that can take part in pilot pro-

 jects from 200 to 1,000. The RI Board uses these pilots,which last for up to six years, to test new ideas, methods,and organizational frameworks for clubs. Pilot clubs thatparticipate in these experiments are fully functioning Rotaryclubs but are exempt from some requirements of the Stan-

dard Rotary Club Constitution.

Among other actions during the week, representatives:

Approved changing the name of Rotary’s Fifth Avenue of Service, currently called “New Generations Service,” to“Youth Service.” The 2010 Council approved this Ave-nue of Service for youth, which joined the already estab-

lished Club Service, Vocational Service, Community

vice, and International Service.

Approved a measure allowing participation in club  jects to count toward club attendance requiremeThe measure amends the Standard Rotary Club Cotution to require that a member attend or make upleast 50 percent of regular club meetings or engagclub projects for at least 12 hours in each half of

year, or a combination of both.

Approved a measure allowing Rotarians outside United States and Canada to receive an electronic tion of their official regional Rotary magazine, if onavailable. Rotarians within the United States and Cada were given the option of receiving a digital ver

of The Rotarianby the 2010 Council.

Approved a measure creating the office of vice goverwho would act as a substitute if the governor becaunable to serve. The vice governor would be selectethe district’s nominating committee from among

district’s past governors. 

Rejected several resolutions that would have askedRI Board of Directors to grant official recognito programs that serve a range of different age gro

including EarlyAct, KidAct, and ElderAct.

With the Council adjourned, an official report of actionbe compiled, sent to clubs, and posted online. Clubs han opportunity to record opposition to any action. If at le5 percent of the clubs entitled to vote oppose an action,legislation is suspended and the general secretary condua ballot-by-mail. A majority vote would cause the proposabe rejected. All Council actions otherwise go into effec

The Object of RotaryFirst formulated in 1910, the Object of Rotary is to encourage andfoster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise and, in par-

ticular, to encourage and foster:

FIRST. The development of acquaintance as an opportunity for ser-

vice;

SECOND. High ethical standards in business and professions, therecognition of the worthiness of all useful occupations, and the digni-

fying of each Rotarian's occupation as an opportunity to serve society;

THIRD. The application of the ideal of service in each Rotarian's per-

sonal, business, and community life;

FOURTH. The advancement of international understanding, goodwill,

and peace through a world fellowship of business and professional

persons united in the ideal of service.

Club Service focuses on strengthening fellowship and ensuring the

effective functioning of the club.

Vocational Service encourages Rotarians to serve others through their

vocations and to practice high ethical standards.

Community Service covers the projects and activities the club under-

takes to improve life in its community.

International Service encompasses actions taken to expand Rotary’shumanitarian reach around the globe and to promote world under-

standing & peace.

Youth Service recognizes the positive change implemented by youth

and young adults through leadership development activities, service

projects, and exchange programs.
