IIRC, in the past, the outgoing board members abstained from officer
votes since they were business of the "new" board. I was planning
to abstain on those grounds as well.<br>

<div>Since my term is ending, it is OK for me to vote on the

<div>Instead of nominating specific persons for the officer
positions, I guess that you will load all the members whose
terms are not expiring for the chair position? Then everyone
except the chair-elect for the vice chair vote?</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hi everyone,
<div>As the EOB elections wind down this week (I just
sent a reminder to the few people who registered but
haven't voted yet), we need to look ahead to officer
elections.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>There is nothing specific in the governance rules
regarding how officers must be nominated and
elected. Unless I hear an objection, I'd like to
proceed with nominations and voting next week. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Tentatively, I'd like to propose nominations for
Chair on Monday with voting Tuesday. Nominations for
Vice-Chair will be Tuesday with voting Wednesday,
and nominations for Secretary will be Wednesday with
voting on Thursday. This will require the EOB to be
available to check email several times per day
Monday-Thursday next week. Will this be problematic
for anyone?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The section on the representative to the SFC is,
frankly, a little vague. (<a href="https://evergreen-ils.org/governance/" target="_blank">See section 2.5b</a>) It just
says, "One Board member shall be the official
representative to the Fiscal Sponsor." The position
is not included with the officer structure - it is,
however, something that the SFC requires, one
official point of contact for our project. In the
past the role has been assigned to officers and
non-officers pretty much equally. But since this is
not an officer position in and of itself, I believe
we can wait and assign/elect the rep at the
Evergreen conference meeting. Thoughts?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For the record I had planned to use OpaVote for
our vote recording for the officer elections unless
I hear any objections...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks everyone!</div>
