BALLOT ITEM #2

Description & Summary Nominating Committee

As part of the strategic planning project, GGA has reviewed our governance procedures and processes. One area they identified where our process is not consistent with “best practices” among leading clubs is how we select a Nominating Committee to review and appoint candidates seeking to become members of the Board of Governors. According to GGA, most clubs have their Board President, or other members chosen by the Board President, select the Nominating Committee. Our Board realizes that this approach is not feasible or optimal at the current time. However, we do agree with GGA, and the GGA survey confirmed that most members agree, that the current process to pick a Nominating Committee should be improved. The Strategic Planning Committee, working with GGA, the Governance Committee and the Board, has developed a revised process that we believe can be effective and solve most of the issues with our current procedure. This proposal will need to be approved by the Membership for it to be implemented. 1) Instead of being chosen randomly, the Nominating Committee would be selected by a “Selection Committee” made up of 7 Members who are on one of the Club’s numerous committees. 2) Members would need to fill out an application to be on the Nominating Committee. 3) The full community would be permitted to apply to be on the Nominating Committee vs. our current process where only 1/3 of the community is eligible to be considered each year. 4) The size of the Nominating Committee would be reduced from 15 to 9, with 3 alternates. There are four key changes to the Nominating Process in this proposal:
