Nominations for the 2007 Grex Board of Directors
| 
Oct 20 14:04 UTC 2006 |
Nominations are now open for the Cyberspace Communications, Inc.
Board of Directors. In accordance with Article 4, Section d of
the Bylaws, nominations will close on November 15 and an online
election will be held December 1 through December 15. Terms of
office begin on January 1, 2007, and are two years in length.
Three seats are up for election this time around.
Grex membership is a requirement for serving on the Board.
Any current member of Grex who has paid at least 3 months'
membership dues and meets state of Michigan eligibility
requirements may run for and serve on the Board unless they are
currently serving and are completing the second of two consecutive
terms. People in the latter group are eligible to run again in
next year's election if they are still members at that time.
The terms of four board members have one more year to run:
Lynne Fremont (slynne), Larry Kestenbaum (polygon), Bruce
Howard (bhoward), and Mark Conger (aruba). Hence there is no
point in nominating any of them.
The three board members whose terms end on January 31 are
Joe Gelinas (gelinas), Jan Wolter (janc), and John Remmers
(remmers). Joe Gelinas is completing the second of two
consecutive terms and is therefore *not* eligible to run this
time, although he can run in future elections. Jan Wolter and
John Remmers are eligible to run for re-election.
To appear on the ballot, a person must be nominated in this
item by November 15 and affirmatively accept the nomination
in this item before the start of voting on December 1. Seconds
are not required. Self-nominations are permitted.
See http://cyberspace.org/local/grex/bod.html for a history
of Board service since 1996.

(If the new board members' terms begin on Jan 1, shouldn't the old member's
terms end on Dec 31? As opposed to Jan 31 as stated in #0 above.)

Oops, my mistake. Board terms end at the instant of time that separates
December 31 from January 1.
One second you're a board member, the next second you're not.

I, too, respectfully decline my nomination due to conflicts in my
present responsibilities. Thank you for considering me.
Although Mike may not be able to accept it, I'd like to nominate Mike
McNally anyway. I'd also like to nominate Dan Cross as well.
