Motion 104: Subject: Maintain VP At Large Position Vacant
Proposed by: Rogelio Oliva, Seconded by: David Lane
Voting open date: 2010.09.25 Voting close date: 2010.10.05
Formal Motion: Motion by Rogelio Oliva, President 2010, seconded by David Lane to leave the VP At Large Position vacant for the following two reasons:
a) There are no well-defined operational or administrative objectives for the position; and b) In the event of special initiatives the PC has the ability to create an ad-hoc committee staffed with members that have the skills and motivation to respond to those specific initiatives.
Notes on supporting material: J Rahns term was 2010-12; he submitted a letter of resignation Aug '10. During a discussion w/ Joel, we agreed the position does not have a clear mandate and, given the ability to form ad-hoc committees, the position is not needed for special projects.
