submitted nominations for any or all posi- tions. Except for members of the Candi- date Search Committee, and prior to the submittal of the required materials to the Secretary, no person shall read or listen to the biography or position statement of any other candidate without such candidate’s prior permission. Members of the Candi- date Search Committee who are also candi- dates may read such biographies and position statements prior to the submittal to the Secretary provided they have previ- ously submitted their biographies and position statements and do not later alter them. The required forms can be submitted to
any member of the Candidate Search Com- mittee, but they must be received no later than February 1, 2017. The Chairman of the Candidate Search Committee is Tom But- tars, 2701 S 13th St., Lincoln, Nebraska 68502. The other committee members will be
announced in the January issue of the Owners News. All members of the commit-
tee will have served on or worked closely with the BMW MOA Board of Directors and will be able to address candidate’s questions about serving on the Board from their personal experiences. The April issue of the BMW Owners
News will contain the election materials, including each candidate’s biography and position statement, optional photograph and the election ballot. The last day to sub- mit ballots is April 30, 2017. The Election Committee will look at the postmark for all ballots received after that date. The Elec- tion Committee will not count ballots received on or after May 11, 2017, even if the postmark is April 30, 2017. In order to foster communication
between members and the candidates, we will provide a special section (sub-forum) in the “Clubhouse” for candidates to use for campaigning, discussing the issues and
answering questions from the member- ship. The Election Forum will go live on April 1 and shall be removed on April 30 of each election year. This end date coincides with the last day to submit a ballot. The election forum will not be archived and participation by candidates in this forum is optional. The Election Committee is nominated
by the President and will be announced after the January Board Meeting. The Elec- tion Committee will certify the results of the BMW MOA 2017 Election and report the results to the President and Secretary who will notify all candidates. The Secre- tary will cause the election results to be printed in the Owners News no later than the July 2017 issue. Successful candidates will assume office at the Board of Director’s Meeting to be held at the 2017 BMW MOA International Rally in Salt Lake City, Utah.
