[Sosfbay-discuss] [Fwd: Regional Rep Election]

[Gerry Gras]

So far there is only one candidate for Regional Rep,
(Mitch Smith), and one candidate for Alternate Rep,
(myself).  If anyone is interested in running for either
position, please announce it ASAP.

NOTE: If anyone would like to run, but is concerned
about offending me, don't be.  I would welcome more
candidates.

NOTE: The CC does allow multiple alternates from a Region.
For a while the North Bay had a Rep, a 1st Alternate, and
a 2nd Alternate.

My term as Regional Rep to the GPCA CC ends at the next plenary,
2 months from now.

The default mode of deciding this is for it to be decided at
the plenary.  But that limits the decision to those who attend
the plenary, which is not local.  So it is prudent to decide
the matter earlier, at GPSCC and GPSMC meetings, or at a joint
GPSCC/GPSMC meeting in the region.

Unfortunately the process for revising our bylaws re Regional
Rep Election has been moving at a very slow pace, and won't be
ready in time for this election.

Now is the time for potential candidates to consider running.
And for those who wish to run, to announce ASAP.

I have had the position for 2 terms, which means for four
years.  I think it is time for a change, for the region and
for myself.

I am willing and happy to run for Alternate Regional Rep, but
I would like to see someone else be the next Regional Rep.

If anyone would like to talk to me about this, you are welcome
to call me at 408-732-6701 between 9 AM and 11 PM.  Unfortunately
I have not yet replaced my broken answering machine.

Gerry

P.S. I am sending this email to both the sosfbay-discuss list
and the gpsmc-cc list separately, to avoid cross posting.  I am
not using the SC-SM list because I believe this should go to
a wider audience.
