LOTW extends terms of Admin Directors

Resolution #38

LOTW voted on the motion to permanently extend the term of office for elected Administration Directors to 12 months. This is subsequent to Resolution #17, February 15th, 2009, which extended the following term (our current term) from 8 months to 12.

It was another exceedingly well-run event thanks to EC Robert, AEC Matt, the COs, and the club's members. Some of the sims which have never previously produced a very high turnout are now climbing the ladder - a sign that more and more members are becoming aware of their right to vote and are putting that right to use!

The results are 38 for, 4 against, and 3 abstained from voting. The resolution is therefore passed.

This produces a 61.6% turnout of the LOTW Membership - roughly a 6% decrease since the last vote, but nevertheless an increase in our turnout at the beginning of this calendar year.

We have Elections coming up in June and this will be everyone's opportunity to have our say and to set the standard for the next year's voter turnouts!

So in gearing up for the Election in two months, I would encourage all of you to become involved in the elections in some way! We are currently looking at ways of improving awareness during the build-up to the elections. As ever, the admin team is open to all your thoughts and suggestions.
