Julian: I'm not really sure if the ballot will be available online for
download. That's a question someone else will have to answer. To the best
of my knowledge the ballot is to be inserted into the March 2015
Newsletter, thus no need to photocopy or tear out, just mark the ballot for you (and
your associate if applicable) and mail it in. Bob

To all POCA members:
To expand a little upon what Ed has said, and to attempt to answer some of
the questions and comments put forth regarding the upcoming ballot to
amend POCA's by-laws, I give you the following:
The ballot itself will have both the current language (old) as well as
the proposed language (new), so the voter can compare the two.
The ballot is to be sent with the March 2015 Newsletter.
I am sure President John Buckman, as well as others will point out
just how important it is for all members and associate members to fill out
and
mail in their ballots. We need about 400 affirmative ballots to make it
fly.
Once passed by a majority of the membership, the rewrite of Article X
attempts to:
Clarify that the majority of the votes cast will prevail.
Will allow for By-Law changes and amendments to be initiated by the
membership at large not just the Board.
Will allow for the electronic transmission and receipt of voting
materials.
Please vote!
Thank you
Bob Reid

Hi All,
The POCA board has gone to great lengths to change this one section of the
bylaws; it's called article 10. The change will make it easier for ALL
POCA members to vote in the future and Allow electronic voting! Yeah!
The way the by-laws read now, you have to have a majority of votes by POCA
members in good standing, that means to change anything now we need 500+
votes, but with this new article 10 not only will it allow electronic
voting, but future votes will be by POCA members as a majority of votes
cast.
Yes a lot of legal mumbo jumbo but we are a California based non profit
corp. So this change needs to be implemented and put forth to the
membership
to pass. That's you guys.
The important part, we need everyone to vote to get the now required 500+
votes for this to pass. The exact wording and voting ballot will be in the
March Newsletter and we need to get the vote out!!!
What will happen if this does not pass?
Things are not going to be able to be changed very easily; as in updating
the
By-laws from its dinosaurus state, or at all to make things better for
YOU, the members.
So I urge everyone to please vote.
Any questions please ask.
I hope I have explained this well enough, the biggest thing is that this
is for all of you and a first step in making this a better club.
Kind regards,
Ed
