4. Slacker marks
Rationale
To ensure that the council stays active, the chosen metastructure
model says that if a council member (or their appointed proxy) fails
to show up for two consecutive meetings, they are marked as a slacker.
If a council member who has been marked a slacker misses any further
meeting (or their appointed proxy doesn't show up), they lose their
position and a new election is held to replace that person. The
'slacker' marker is reset when a member is elected.
If any meeting has less than 50% attendance by council members, a new
election for all places must be held within a month.
