Email ballot ruling
by Geoffrey Neale 20 Aug '13

20 Aug '13

Please consider this my official notice that I am ruling that email ballots 2013-11 through 2013-17 have all passed. These motions are the Audit Committee recommendations for Policy Manual changes. All of these changes are effective immediately, but the Audit Committee has communicated with me that it is understand that some of these may take time to implement fully. I will be working with staff to ensure these changes are complied with in a way that ensures timeliness, without negatively affecting ongoing LP business. I will present a status of the implementation of these new policies at the next LNC meeting. Geoffrey Neale ======= Email scanned by PC Tools - No viruses or spyware found.
