Happy New Year!
2 January 1999
There is no archived Board-L traffic for the month of January [or for 1999
for that matter]. It appears that the Board is not yet back in session or
that they are meeting elsewhere.
Recap corner: Since the Board adjourned for the holidays on Dec 18, 1998,
much news has happened. In an emergency meeting called Dec 22, 1998, the
following motions were made and voted on:
Motion 98-16: Bob Bamford resigned, 9 Board members voted "aye" to accept
his resignation, 1 voted present, and 2 did not vote
Motion 98-17: Beth Wills is appointed Acting Interim National Coordinator,
8 members vote "aye", 1 abstains. [this would be the same Beth Wills who I
believe has been talked out of resigning twice now]
Motion 98-18, to post the synopsis of the emergency session to the
national web page; 9 members vote "aye, 1 votes present
Motion 98-19, to add Bob Bamford's position to the ballot, 10 members vote
"aye"
Motion 98-20; motion to adjourn the emergency session for lack of a
quorum, 7 members vote "aye", 1 votes present
Motion 98-21: Terry Davis resigns, Bill Oliver is appointed to her
position and the position is added to the ballot: 9 members vote "aye"
[apparently this business was conducted outside of a called meeting, on
Dec 23]
For those of you keeping score, as of 12/28/98, the Board is effectively
down three members: Beth Wills, as acting NC, cannot vote (NE/NC region
CC rep), and two positions have not been filled (NE/NC CC rep, SE/MA CC
rep).
A "second" motion 98-21,concering the formation of a bylaws committee has
been posted and withdrawn [although it still appears on the "upcoming
votes" webpage]. It was originally posted here and withdrawn here, so
will not be repeated.
The nominating period for the upcoming election has closed. A third
person has lept into the fray for the National Coordinator position.
Three people are running for SW/SC CC rep, 3 for NW/P CC rep, 2 for SE/MA
CC rep, 2 for NE/NC CC rep and 1 for NW/P SC rep. The deadline for
responding to already received nominations is Jan 6, so these numbers may
change. You may view the list of candidates and visit their campaign
pages at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilhardi2/nomi.htm
