ECA Community College Representative to NCA Legislative Assembly Nominations
Hi CCIG!
In April, the Nominating Committee needs to put forward a slate of candidates that includes the ECA Community College Representative to NCA Legislative Assembly (term begins Jan 1, 2016).
Once nominees’ names are in, then those present at the 2015 ECA General Business meeting vote on a slate to be presented to the membership.
Would you be interested? Let me know and I will forward your name to Danette Ifert Johnson. PLEASE send me a note indicating your interest by April 9.
Eligibility for Office (from ECA Bylaws)
Section 1. A person must be a member of the Association to be eligible for: (1) nomination to candidacy for any elective office of the Association; (2) appointment to any appointive office or committee position in the Association; and (3) election to any elective office in the Association. Such membership must be confirmed by the Executive Director at the time of nomination, appointment or election.

If the person has not renewed membership within 60 days after such notification has been sent, the position shall be declared vacant by the President of the Association. If the vacant office is that of President or First Vice President, the procedures outlined in the Bylaws, Article VII,
Sections 2 and 8, shall be in effect to fill the office. If the vacated office is any other elective one, the President, with the approval of a majority of the Executive Council, shall appoint an individual to fill the position until the next regular election. If the vacated position is that of any appointed member of the Executive Council, the President, with the consent of a majority of the Executive Council, shall appoint an individual to fill the office until nominations can be obtained and acted on. If the vacated position is a committee post, the President shall appoint an individual to assume the post.
