BIZ state coordinator election
by Michael and Vivian Saffold
Good morning, all,
This morning we will begin voting for a new state coordinator for the
GAGenWeb Project. Voting will continue until 9 a.m. EST Sunday 31 July 2005.
To vote, go to this page:
www.thegaproject.org/voteSC.htm
The guidelines proposed earlier this month passed unanimously. They are as
follows:
The upcoming SC term is for two years. The term begins 1 August 2005.
The State Coordinator (SC) will appoint an Assistant State Coordinator
(ASC) who can assume his duties if he is unable. The ASC's term runs
concurrently with the SC's. The SC may appoint such members of a support
team as he deems necessary. The term for the support team members will run
concurrently with the SC's.
If the SC relinquishes the job within four months of the end of the term (1
April 2007), the ASC will serve as acting SC until the end of the term. If
the SC leaves before 1 April, a special election will be held to fill the
unexpired term.
The SC will conduct regional elections for Regional Assistants in time for
the new RAs to take their seats by 1 October. The terms will be for two years.
We had a 33% voter turnout... not as good as I'd like, but better than some
elections in my town and county.
Let's shoot for a better turn-out for the actual election.
Thanks,
Vivian
