The General Meeting is being called for members to discuss and vote on the proposed increase of $30 per annum in membership dues. There are increased costs from Rotary International (~$6 depending on exchange rate), District 9620 ($11) and Rotary Down Under ($3), plus coverage for new member kits, polo shirts, etc. 
Under the Club's Constitution, any changes to membership dues must be approved by members at a General Meeting.  Also an increase of $2 for weekly dinner meetngs (Urban Food increased the cost of meals in February 2025 by $2, which was the first increase in almost two years of providing the meals. At the time the Board decided to maintain the cost to members at $33, however the Club cannot sustain this subsidy next financial year and achieve a balanced budget.)
