SUMMARY: District
Meeting Rule No. 2 specifies that in December of each year, the Board of
Directors shall select a Chair, Vice-Chair, a Treasurer and a Secretary. The officers elected at the meeting will
assume their positions following the December Board meeting. The term of office is twelve months. The text of Meeting Rule No. 2 (adopted in
December 2001) is shown below.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Board should nominate and elect officers for calendar year
2004. It has been the Board’s past
practice to elect the General Manager to serve as Secretary and the
Administrative Services Manager to serve as Treasurer.
At the first meeting in the month of December of
each year, the Board of Directors shall elect a Chair, Vice-Chair, a Treasurer,
and a Secretary. The agenda for the
December meeting will list the election of Board officers as the last item for
consideration that evening. The
officers elected in December will assume their positions after the December
Board meeting. Rotation of the chair
shall be encouraged. At the first
meeting after a vacancy occurs in any office, an election shall be conducted to
fill that vacancy. If both the Chair
and Vice-Chair are absent, the directors in attendance shall select a presiding
officer to conduct that meeting
