P97.01.02 Jari Makela Passed
"Term Limits for CINCSF"
------------------------------------------------------------------
Title: The length of term for CINCSF
Author: Jari Makela
Summary: The length of term for CINCSF is to be defined to be one
year from one April RoundTable session to the next.
Rationale: It is the opinion of this representative, that the
length of time the CINCSF is elected to serve in the position
should not be indefinite, with the only way out being a voluntary
retirement or a VNC. Having an election every year, gives us an
opportunity to ensure that we have the best possible CINCSF at any
given time, elected from among candidates who feel that they have
something to offer to the club at large.
Text: The length of the term for which CINCSF serves in the office
after having been elected is to be defined as the length of time
counting from one April RoundTable session to the next. The number
of subsequent terms is not limited, i.e. the person leaving the
office of CINCSF is not prohibited from participating as a
candidate in the following election, or in any future elections.
No motions to automatically skip the election to reinstate the
current CINCSF are to be accepted.
If an election takes place in other than a regular April Round
Table session, the elected CINCSF will serve until the next
regular April Round Table session, at which a new election will be
held.
The current CINCSF officially holds the position until the new one
is elected, unless he/she is also a candidate, in which case an
acting Chair is to be appointed.
