  • CBC authorizations should be original signatures, but they can be transmitted via fax, email, or scan.
  • Charter agreements can be signed via email approval by the IH and the CR with the IH meeting held at a later date and the council representative’s signature secured at a future date.
  • If a unit has submitted their renewal online and it is pending due to signatures or payment, it is allowable to get approval from the CR/IH and Unit Leader via email. If the unit has sufficient funds in their custodial account at the council, the authorized signer on the unit account can give approval via email to withdraw the necessary funds for the recharter.

Email is an acceptable way to transmit applications, but you will need to use encrypted email to safeguard the personally identifiable information.
