I don't believe Roberts would provide for the removal of an officer. According to their FAQs:
Question 7:
What is a vote of no confidence?
Answer:
The term "vote of no confidence" is not used or defined anywhere in RONR, and there is no mention of any motion for such a vote. However, this does not mean that an assembly cannot adopt a motion, if it wishes, expressing either its confidence or lack of confidence in any of its officers or subordinate boards or committees. Any such motion would simply be a main motion, and would have no effect other than to express the assembly's views concerning the matter. A vote of "no confidence" does not - as it would in the British Parliament - remove an officer from office.
Removal of an officers should be provided for in the C&SC or in chapter by-laws. Considering that removal of an officer is a touchy and sometimes difficult process I wouldn't leave it to the individual chapters.
Code IV-31(c) seems to provide the power to remove an officer to the Exec. committee, but it doesn't not provide standards or procedure for removal. Once again, this is why the C&SC should be completely revised.
