I tried to be even on the nominating committee and was chased off with Leo, by a very aggressive,and abusive board member. Was not worth the trouble.
dan d I was wondering when you were going to pop up and post negatively about your very short stint on the NC. I was appreciative of your volunteerism and I told you so. You have not participated on HPP committees before and appeared to have little understanding of the difference between board and membership committees. The membership is the appointing body for the NC, not the board. That is a key difference. The bylaws directives for the NC duties are very specific, that is also key. The rest of the NC wanted to follow the bylaws. Apparently this didn't sit well w/you.
It's regrettable that you opened up that can of worms publicly so I must respond as you have made some serious allegations against me. If anyone was aggressive or abusive, it was you towards me. (There are witnesses) I will leave it at that w/out getting into details. Your agenda was adverse to the bylaws. We now have great members on the NC who respect their duties to the membership and are trying to serve the membership's best interest to have a clean and timely election.
TomK....I understand and agree with what you've said. The irony is that if good people don't step up to run in their districts, their district will have someone chosen by the majority board. Having the opportunity to vote for someone in their own district is removed from the equation. That's not optimal for their district or for the association as a whole.
