For example, a board member might say, “I move to adjourn.” An example of a movement to adjourn and continue the meeting later would be, “I move to adjourn the meeting until tomorrow at 9 am.” This is not considered a privileged motion. The words sine die means without delay.
In case some agenda items have not been addressed, a motion to adjourn is typically presented by a board member and seconded by another. After a majority vote, the meeting is adjourned. The remaining agenda items are then moved to the next scheduled meeting.
What do you say when adjourning a meeting? Most boards follow The Robert's Rules for adjourning a meeting. But some take shortcuts and the chair will just say: “I declare the meeting adjourned.”

Parliamentary procedure should not be used to prevent discussion of important issues.

Board meeting minutes are an objective record of what took place during a board meeting. The minutes are typically used for internal purposes like record-keeping and for posterity. Minutes can serve to inform future meetings and recall what was discussed, agreed upon or dismissed by a company's board members.
Robert's Rules (Section -16) state that “the minutes should contain mainly a record of what was done at the meeting, not what was said by the members.” Minutes are not transcripts of meetings; rather, the document contains a record of actions taken by the body, organized by the meeting's order of business (agenda).
