Dear State Coordinators,
We need your help and cooperation in giving this letter the
widest possible distribution throughout The USGenWeb
Project.
We wish to inform our fellow volunteers that a group of CC's
have formed a committee to review the current bylaws. Our
goal is to ensure that every volunteer working within the
USGenWeb Project has the opportunity to submit feedback to
our committee regarding their concerns related to the
bylaws.
Please see our website at
http://wcic.cioe.com/~gizmo
The goal of the committee is to present these proposed
amendments for the annual USGenWeb general election in June,
1999.
Several County Coordinators and State Coordinators have
eloquently stated the need for amendments to our bylaws. We
intend to present options for amendments during the coming
months in order to draft proposed amendments with the
greatest possible input from the general membership. A
state sponsor for our proposals will be requested so this
committee may work within the current bylaws.
We also intend to remain as apolitical as possible. The
contribution of each CC in this process is vital to maintain
fairness and impartiality. Your assistance in sharing this
information with your CC's is greatly appreciated. We
welcome your response and input in the revision process.
Thank you for your cooperation in this endeavor which
affects the entire USGW project.
Sincerely,
Roger Swafford CCBRC, Chair
Norma Lewis CCBRC,Vice-Chair
