An extra Intergroup meeting was held on 2-18-12, to address the motion on 1-21-12, to close Intergroup for lack of consistent attendance and participation. A discussion was held to brief attendees on the history and reason for this motion.
The motion was not passed, 5-2, with 2 abstentions. Immediately following the vote an Intergroup Chairperson was voted to serve Intergroup as well as a new treasurer, relieving James R. of his position.

Vote on the possibility of Intergroup Closure 2-18-12
January 25, 2012 by secretary.
It was decided by the 1-21-12 Intergroup attendees that a vote will take place at a so-called “special Intergroup”, to be held on February 18, 2012 whether to continue with Intergroup as a central unit responsible for the helpline, schedule, and website maintenance, as well as other duties.
If the vote is to close Intergroup, those in attendance will discuss how to pass on those three primary provisions to the area meetings and request that responsiblity be taken for each.
Please see the minutes from Intergroup for more information:

Capital Region Integroup Shutdown Potential
January 18, 2012 by secretary.
There are several Intergroup officers and regular attendees who have decided personally that they will not be able to continue with their duties should a quorum of 2 officers and 2 fellowship members not occur for the next 3 Intergroups (1/21, 3/17, 5/19 of 2012). More will be discussed this Saturday at the Intergroup meeting - 11:30 at Pine Grove Methodist Church in Albany. There is no requirement for attendance at Intergroup beyond attendance at SLAA meetings.
The consequence of these resignations would be the shutdown of a number of Intergroup Provisions. The decision is based primarily on a lack of attendance at Intergroup and the inability to sometimes not meet for 2 or 3 out of the 6 yearly Intergroup meetings.
Pete F. (Intergroup Secretary)

Intergroup meeting location change
March 19, 2011 by secretary.
Intergroup will temporarily be meeting at Pine Grove Methodist Church, on Central Avenue, Albany at 11:30am Saturday 5-19-11. Intergroup will decide at that point whether to keep that location or to decide on an alternate location. That decision was not made on 3-19-11 because there was not a quorum, therefore Intergroup was not held.
