* | *Overview of Election Process (Annya) | ||
**We have 4 board members (Mike Sacha, Annya Hundal, Matthew Hoyt, Rachel Keglowitsch) continuing in their second year of their two year terms: they do not need to stand for election. | |||
**We also have 3 current board (Jeremy Shepherd, Husam Charkeih, Sarah Rebryna) members who would like to return and are running in the election. We aim for a full board of 12 members, so we have a total of 8 positions to be filled this year. | |||
**Board meetings occur monthly, with additional committee meetings, typically also monthly. Strategic planning session to occur in Nov/Dec. | |||
**We have 3 nomination(s) in advance, plus the 3 current board members running again, and are looking for any additional nominations from the floor. You may nominate someone else or you may nominate yourself. We will ask you to give a short, 1-minute introduction and what you will bring to the board and organization. | |||
*Nominations and Candidate Introductions | |||
**Keith – He’s volunteered on and off since before 2012. He likes to ride bikes with his kids. Has lots of tools at home so he doesn’t come into the shop too much. Lived in Berkley, CA for 3 months, and their bike co-ops weren’t as good as Bike Edmonton. | |||
**Jarett – Currently serving as social chair for the Alpine Club of Canada (ACC). He’s big on community building, is a writer for a neighbourhood magazine. He thinks we can improve our website. He likes bikes, he’s into community development and wants to contribute. | |||
**Roy – He was a past president of the GSA at the UofA. Familiar with governance, advocacy. Worked with CoE to establish programs. Has ideas of how committees can work best, effective board functioning. He admires our advocacy work with the CoE and would like to do more of that. He’s worked as a mechanic at VeloCity Cycle. | |||
**Ken – He’s been a stalwart volunteer for a number of years, supports shuttling to and fro, good mechanic, very compassionate, good knowledge of everyday operations of shops, always and truly devoted to values. Ken works as a nurse with the military, strong organizational skills, and good sense of humour. | |||
**Sarah – Has completed 2 years on the board, and is looking to continue. She’s moved to the north end, and has been biking less, which has increased her motivation to further Bike Edmonton’s mission. She’s experienced with boards and has been on this one for 2 years – hoping to continue. | |||
**Jeremy – On for another 2 years unless he’s voted off. | |||
**Husam – Has been with the board for a year, interested in social planning, and is looking to contribute to other areas in the year ahead. | |||
*We would like to thank the contributions of our outgoing board members: | |||
**Talha Zafar, Jasmine Farahbakhsh, Mike Pybus | |||
