| ELECTION
PROCESS
Unit Secretary, Jane Ettelson, received petitions from the following Unit Members for 4 vacancies:
- Norman Goldman
- Lee Hastings
- Paul Hudson
- Jeff Koplow
- Debbie Romero ( presently on the BOD)
- Linda Seibert
- Helene Siegfried
- There were NO petitions for the Outside Metro area position
Since the
total number of nominees is more than the
number of vacancies, an election will be held
by secret ballot at the Fall Sectional. Otherwise,
no election will be held and all the nominees
will become board members in November.
According
to the By-Laws
(Article VII A1 & A2) there are
four (4) vacancies available to members residing
inside the "metro" area of the unit
-- defined
as the City of St. Louis, Jefferson County,
St. Charles County and St. Louis County
-- and one (1) vacancy for members residing
in the "outside metro" area of the
Unit.
