Can a board director rescind their vote?

There's no easy way according to Roberts Rules of Order, to rescind a vote by a director. According to Wikipedia, and Roberts Rules of Order Newly Revised: "...the requirements for changing a previous action are greater than those for taking the action in the first place. A motion to rescind, repeal or annul or amend something already adopted, for instance, requires a two-thirds vote, a majority with previous notice, or a majority of the entire membership." Best practices dictate that the vote be called again so that the director has an opportunity to vote 'the other way', but with clear procedural guidelines being acknowledged and followed.

What is the meaning of motion is out of order?

Someone at a meeting has 'made a motion', a proposal, that the group do some specific thing. A motion can be any one of many dozens of possibilities. In this case, the chairperson of the committee (or the parliamentarian, in very formal settings) has determined that according to the rules of order being used for the meeting, that particular motion cannot be made at this time. There may be other motions that first have to be considered, or there may be some other procedural things that have to be accomplished before that motion can be made. So right after the committee member makes the motion by saying, for example, "I move that we adjourn until tomorrow at 10", the Chair says "That motion is out of order. We first must...." Roberts' Rules of Order are commonly and widely used and respected. As a footnote, when something is called "out of order" by the Chair (and only the Chair can say this if the assembly is civilized) it has nothing whatever to do with the preferences or positions held by any members of the Chair. It isn't used rhetorically or for effect. It has to do with the technical order in which various things have to be accomplished by the committee.
