Art V Sect 9(c) - limitation on terms of Directors

["Eric Scace" <scace@uu.net>]

   The proposed amendment to Art V Section 9 (c) 2 has deleted the
limitation: "No director may serve for more than two terms."  No replacement
was proposed.

   In order to encourage a reasonable rotation in office, some provision
should be made to limit the number of consecutive terms.  Such provisions
exist in other parts of the Bylaws (or the proposed amendments) for, e.g.,
members of the At Large Council.

   I suggest that the Bylaws provide as follows: "No Director may serve for
more than two consecutive terms."

   Such a provision would required a Director to step aside after his second
term... but, if his constituency was so motivated, the individual could be
re-elected to the board again at the next year's election.
