Section 5.18 Rules of Order.<br />

Robert’s Rules of Order should be the mechanism of operation for the <strong>GASSA</strong><br />

Board of Directors’ Meetings.<br />

ARTICLE VI<br />

OFFICERS<br />

Section 6.1. Officers.<br />

The Executive Officers of the Association shall be a President, President Elect and<br />

Past President.<br />

The Term of Office for these Executive Officers shall be one (1) year. The President<br />

Elect shall be elected by the Full Members of the Association. Following service as<br />

President Elect, the individual automatically moves to President and then to Past<br />

President.<br />

Nominations for President Elect shall be accepted at the same time that<br />

nominations shall be accepted for the Board of Directors. Individuals nominated<br />

as President Elect must be a current member of the <strong>GASSA</strong> Board of Directors or<br />

have served on the Board within the last three years.<br />

The Ballot shall include those listed as nominated to be President Elect.<br />

Full members may vote for those nominated for President Elect separate from<br />

voting for those members to be elected to the Board of Directors.<br />

The highest number of votes from Full members will determine the elected<br />

President Elect. If there are no nominations for President Elect or if the voting does<br />

not result in a President Elect who is either nominated or consent to serve, then<br />

the Board of Directors shall elect the President Elect and/or President from the<br />

eligible Full Member membership of the Association.<br />

The Board of Directors may elect or appoint such other officers, including one or<br />

more Secretaries and one or more Treasurers, as it shall deem reasonable, such<br />

officers to have the authority and perform the duties prescribed, from time to<br />

time, by the Board of Directors. No more than one office may be held by the same<br />

person. Executive Officers (President, Past President and President elect) shall by<br />

virtue of their office be members of the Board of Directors.<br />
