Bylaws Revision - Directors Term of Office

9/17 At the recommendation of the Bylaws Committee, the Board of Directors voted to mail a proposed bylaws revision to members in good standing for a vote prior to the election of Directors for 2016. Four positions on the Board are up for election and ballots for that will be sent out around mid-December. The proposed revision, if accepted, would change the directors term of office from 2 to 3 years effective with the election of directors for 2017. The effect in the upcoming election for the transition year would be that of the 4 directors elected, 2 would serve 2 year terms and 2 would serve for 3 years, with those receiving the highest number of votes serving 3 years.  The benefit of this arrangement would be more continuity in the Board with 2 or 3 directors being elected each year and never a majority of the board at once. ​

1/3/16 UPDATE - The Bylaws revision was passed by the members' mail-in ballot. The election of directors which is currently in progress for 4 directors positions will result in 2 directors being elected for 3 year terms and 2 directors for 2 year terms, putting us on a 3 director / 2 director / 2 director election cycle beginning for 2017.
