Hi,

I do believe that we need to schedule another election sometime after
the new concil members take their seats and NCUC and NPOc announce their
new PC memebrber for 2015 (thohg I guess they might start sooner that 2015)

I am not sure where NPOC is at with naming its new council PC members,
but I know that NCUC is still working on it.

I think that election can be as soon as we have the full compliment of
new members or once the calendar changes the year

As for Chair, alt-chair, the charter only obligates us to have a chair. 
We have added a alt-chair for conveninece, but it is not a chartered
position.  There is also no charter rule that the alt chair becomes
chair, but i suppose that make sense.  Or the alt-chair can just
conitnue to function as alt-chair without needing a new title.  That is
what I did last year.

In any case, Maria is on Council until the end of the meeting on
Wednesday, and I would prefer not to replace her until she is actually
gone.  Seems a bit unseemly to rush while the seat is still occupied.

>>> As we discussed yesterday, at the end of the meeting, Maria is going to leave, the question of elections of new members/seats in NCSG PC was raised. However, the election of the mandates in NCSG PC took place early this year, having the chair and alternate chair taking seats in Februari, I think there is actually no need to redo elections. When the chair is not available, the alternate chair fills in the position and replaces the chair. Perhaps we need to have a look for a new alternate chair to complete the mandate.
