This article will show you how to add a Motion during a meeting.

Important Note

• There is a relationship in CivicClerk, now Select Agenda and Meeting Management, between Motions and Votes. A motion doesn't require a vote and can be left blank if, for example, a motion is not seconded and therefore doesn't make it to a vote. However, entering a motion is required before a vote can occur.
