  • Article VIII, 3 b. of the NSCNA By-Laws:
    A Special five member Nominating Committee shall be appointed by the President no less than 30 days prior to the annual meeting. It shall attempt to balance membership of the Board of Directors with respect to geographic residence, age, sec, occupation, and area of expertise, choosing from among persons who have demonstrated interest in the goals of the Association.

    We, the undersigned, as members of the 2007 Nominating Committee, nominate the following eleven people to serve on the Board of Directors for the 2008 calendar year. In discussing and talking with several members of our neighborhood association, we attempted to meet the goals laid out in the By-Laws of our association. Additionally, given the turmoil faced by the association and its board over the last several months, we tried to focus on a group of people that worked well with each other and other people, as well as members who would hold the wishes and well being of the association and its members above those of themselves.
