Information and Process for Adopting New Model Town Team Constitution v3

Purpose & how to use: Explains why and how to adopt the simplified Town Team Constitution drafted by Jackson McDonald instead of the WA model rules. Includes the resolution wording for the inaugural meeting.
Who it's for: New WA Town Teams choosing between model rules and the Town Team Constitution; existing teams considering switching.
Key points: The Town Team Constitution uses an "Eldership" governance model with no individual office bearers, aiming to spread responsibility and avoid succession problems. WA requires a minimum of six members, and Section C of Form 1 must map your rules to the Schedule 1 matters. The document includes draft inaugural meeting resolutions for incorporating and formally adopting the rules.
