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.
 
Bob
