<DIV><FONT size=4>During last Wednesday's GPSCC meeting, there was discussion
about whether our GPCA </FONT><FONT size=4>Coordinating Committee member
and alternate could be chosen by delegates at a plenary or whether we are
required to use the rules we adopted a few years back.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>My recollection is that when the GPSCC adopted Article 9
of its Bylaws, and San Mateo County adopted similar bylaws, we opted out
from the default procedure in the GPCA Bylaws. Under those rules, any
candidate needs to be approved at meetings in each county. In SCC, the
Bylaws state that the County Council has to put the matter on the agenda, there
needs to be 15 days notice, and the item has to be included in the emailed
agenda.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>The change in procedure was based upon the collective sense
that a few delegates at a plenary should not have the responsibility or burden
of appointing a reluctant volunteer... which had been the pre-existing
practice. At least with required meetings, any candidate is required to
meet with each County GP and present their case that she or he is up to the
job.</FONT></DIV>
