Inland Northwest Parliamentary Law Unit
About INPLU
The Inland Northwest Parliamentary Law Unit (INPLU), was chartered August 31, 2007, in Spokane, Washington, as a local unit of the National Association of Parliamentarians (NAP). It is affiliated with the Washington State Association of Parliamentarians (WSAP), within NAP District 7.
INPLU normally meets on the third Tuesday of each month, at 7:00 pm, at the Central Valley SCOPE Shop, located at 115 N. Evergreen Road (at E. Riverside Avenue), in Spokane Valley. Meetings last about an hour and a half, and include an educational presentation about parliamentary procedure, as well as a short business meeting. Guests are always welcome.
Joining INPLU
Any person interested in the study of parliamentary procedure, and who is not already a member of NAP, may join INPLU as a provisional member by submitting a properly completed Application For Unit Membership with the required annual unit dues of $10.00. Provisional members are not members of NAP or WSAP, but with three exceptions, they have full membership rights within INPLU. The exceptions are that provisional members may not serve as President or Vice-President, as a delegate to the NAP Convention, nor as the unit representataive to the WSAP Board of Directors. Provisional membership is limited to three years.
A provisional member who takes and passes the NAP Membership Exam, and who lists INPLU as his or her unit on the NAP Membership Application, will become a primary member of INPLU and WSAP. (See the NAP Dues Chart for the applicable NAP and WSAP dues.) Any member of NAP may become a primary member of INPLU by submitting a properly completed Application For Unit Membership with the required annual unit dues of $10.00, and notifying NAP (and, if applicable, his or her former unit and association) of the change in status. Primary members have full membership rights in INPLU, WSAP,and NAP.
A primary member of any other unit may become an affiliate member of INPLU, while retaining primary membership in the other unit, by submitting a properly completed Application For Unit Membershp with the required annual unit dues of $10.00. If the member's primary membership is in a different association, the member also must join WSAP as an affiliate member. Affiliate members have full membership rights in INPLU, WSAP, and NAP.
