[Sosfbay-discuss] Starting The Mid Valley Local of the GPSCC

[JamBoi]

To get this 'party started' we just need a petition submitted either to
a County Council meeting or to a General Meeting with the signatures of
5 registered Greens living in the Mid Valley area:  Central SJ,
Campbell, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Saratoga.

Here's a starter set of names of folks I've talked about (although I'm
sure y'all can come up with more).

Jim Doyle  -  j.m.doyle at sbcglobal.net
Merriam Kathaleen  - MKmusic03 at aol.com,
Mary-Lyle Rempel - (no e-mail - Jim has phone #)
Marko Cook - britelad at gmail.com  (Marko needs to re-register Green to
county 
  as a GPSCC "Member" - even though he actually helped start the
party!)
Eric Meece - eameece at california.com 
Patrick Lynch - I'll have to locate his e-mail (Contact from De Anza) 

Here's our relevant Bylaws section:

http://cagreens.org/sclara/bylaws.shtml 
ARTICLE 5 COUNTY LOCALS

5.1 Consistent with Green Party values supporting decentralization and
personal responsibility, individual members may form locals of the
Green Party of Santa Clara County in the various subregions of the
county.

5.2 To be duly recognized as an official GPSCC Local, such a group
must: 
a) Be approved as a County Local -- either by the County Council or at
a general meeting of the GPSCC -- after submitting a written request
signed by at least five (5) Members describing their intent to form a
Local and the boundaries of the proposed Local. 
b) Minutes will be recorded for all official meetings and a copy will
be made available to the County Council on request. 
c) Duly elect a contact person who will facilitate communication
between the local and the county organization. 
d) Have clearly defined geographic boundaries and notify the Council in
writing of any subsequent changes of those boundaries. 
e) Conduct Local activities in accordance with the spirit and intent of
the Green Party's 10 Key Values.

5.3 A GPSCC Local shall not take any public position on county-wide or
state-wide issues contrary to that taken by the GPSCC or the California
Green Party, without receiving consensus at a County general meeting. A
Local shall not assert any authority expressly reserved to the GPSCC in
these Bylaws or to the California Green Party in the state party's
bylaws.

Organize, Energize, Coalize!
