Title
NOMINATION OF OFFICERS
Body
The SSHRB Rules and Procedures specify that the Board shall have a President and Vice-President, elected by the Board, to serve for one-year terms. Because of the vacancy created by the resignation of President Williams, the Board will hold an election of officers to serve for the balance of FY 2016-17. The Rules and Procedures state that nominations shall be taken from the floor and that the election shall be held at the next meeting.
The descriptions of the role of President and Vice President are outlined in the SSHRB Rules and Procedures and are included below:
President: Preside at all meetings of the Board, call special meetings, appoint committees, and perform other proper duties of a presiding officer. Except as otherwise authorized by the Board, the President shall sign all correspondence, reports, and other instruments approved by the Board.
Vice President: Perform the duties of the President in the absence or incapacity of the President; and in the case of the resignation or other permanent absence of the President, the Vice President shall perform such duties as are imposed on the President until such time as the Board shall select a new President.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that nominations be offered for the positions of President and Vice President, respectively, and that direction be given to agendize the Election of Officers at the next meeting of the Board.
