Section 8.7. Vacancies.
- Elected Officers. A vacancy created by the death, disqualification, resignation, or removal of an elected officer shall be filled by the Board of Trustees until the next regular General Assembly at which an election can be held. The vacancy shall then be filled by election for the balance of the unexpired term, if any.
- Appointed Non-salaried Officers. A vacancy created by the death, disqualification, resignation, or removal of an appointed non-salaried officer may be filled by the Board of Trustees for the balance of the unexpired term.

The 2011 General Assembly adopted changes to Sections 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 6.8, 8.3, 8.7, 9.1, 9.3, 9.4, 9.6, 9.11, 9.12, and 9.13 of the Bylaws and to Rule G-9.12.2 that will reduce the size of the UUA Board from 26 persons to 14 and change the process of election of trustees.
