Chair’s Report of Executive
Board Actions:
Updated October 31, 2007
Chair's report
of Executive Board Meeting, Thursday October
18.
We reviewed and
approved the minutes of our previous
meeting.
We approved the
financial report and the PAC report.
Under
correspondence, we received a letter from
Michael Peterson, President of NABET
Local 53. Brother Peterson has named two
new delegates to the Council, Stephen
Simpson, Vice President and Louis Gabriele,
Secretary-Treasurer. He also recommended
Louis Gabriele to be the Executive Board
member from NABET.
Vice Chair Phil
Hannemann presented new language for the
Bylaws regarding the election and term of
office to the Council. The language will be
presented to you at our November meeting.
The proposal would require a nominee for
office be a delegate to be elected and to
remain a delegate for the duration of the
term.
After
discussion, the majority of the Board voted
not to endorse the amendment. However, the
final decision as always remains with the
body of the Council.
We will have to
deal with this amendment before I can
appoint a new Executive Board member from
NABET.
I reported to
the Board about the Tri-Counties awards
dinner. My wife and I did attend the
dinner. As we were the only ones at the
table, I invited Staff Representative Ken
Prairie to join us. It was a good affair
but costly.
We discussed
reports from the Board members and then
adjourned.
I apologize for
taking so long to send this report but I was
on vacation for the week following the
meeting.
As to the
agenda for November, we will have to deal
with the Bylaws amendment, a possible
appointment of a new Board member and hear
reports from the various committees.
Our meeting is
November 15, 10:00 AM at the Pasadena
Hilton.
See you there.
