In order to be eligible for election to the Board of Directors a candidate must be a "member in good standing" of the association for a minimum period of 90 days prior to the AGM. During any given year, the Board of Directors may "appoint" provisional members on an as needed basis. Those provisional members then stand for election at the next AGM.
For the 2011-2012 term a total of 16 eligible candidates have put their names forward for election to the Board of Directors. The corporate By-Laws state that the Board ought to be comprised of 20 association members; however, it was decided at the April Board of Directors meeting that the slate for 2011-12 would stand at sixteen. Over the past few years the association has been unable to fill all twenty volunteer positions. The By-Laws will be amended to indicate that the Board may be comprised of "up to" twenty association members.
