Old Business
Monica gave an overview of the timeline for the nomination process. The committee reviewed the interest survey that will be sent out to membership. Lacey will make needed changes and send a draft out to the Committee for review. The survey will be sent to the IT department to be incorporated into Survey Monkey and sent out to the membership February 1st -15th.
Of the five slots that will be open, one incumbent is interested in running for a second term, another will step down from the board and three are still to be determined. It was suggested that all Committee members consider their colleagues and reach out to those who may be eligible and interested in running for an open seat.
