The NECA CEO Search Committee is in the process of reviewing applicants for the CEO position and has expressed concerns to the Executive Committee that Bylaws Section 11.2 is too restrictive and eliminates candidates who are otherwise qualified.

The NECA Executive Committee has directed President Long to call for a special meeting of the Board of Governors, in accordance with Section 8.6a of the NECA Bylaws. The Executive Committee has submitted the attached Bylaw amendment proposal that requires Board of Governor approval. The NECA Bylaws require any bylaw amendments to be adopted by ballot vote at a meeting of the Board of Governors. Mail ballots are not allowed (Bylaws Section 8.6d). 

The meeting will be held at the Westin Dallas Fort Worth Airport hotel at 9:00am on January 15, 2019 (breakfast will be available beginning at 8:00am). Hotel rooms can be reserved for the evening of January 14 for $149 here.
