One NEA Director position will be for a regular 3-year term to begin 9/1/2015. The other NEA Director position will be for the remainder of the term to expire 8/31/2015 as well as the full subsequent 3-year term beginning on 9/1/2015. This situation exists because of the retirement of a seated NEA Director. The RA will be held at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare, 9300 Bryn Mawr, Rosemont, IL on April 16-18. The deadline for nominations for these positions is Jan. 1. Any member in good standing may be a candidate for office and may be nominated by any member in good standing. The election for these offices will take place from 7-8:45 a.m. on April 18. Finally, more detailed information regarding election deadlines, procedures and rules are available from the IEA-NEA Elections Committee www.ieanea.org/about/ elections . PROPOSED Bylaw Amendments for 2015 IEA RA Proposed bylaw amendments must be received by the IEA Bylaws and Resolutions Committee, in care of the President’s Office, Illinois Education Association, 100 E. Edwards, Springfield, IL 62704-1999, no later than 5 p.m. Central Standard Time, Dec. 12. This will enable the Bylaws and Resolutions Committee to prepare the proposed bylaw amendments for presentation to the executive committee and posted on the association website. Proposed bylaw amendments submitted after this deadline will not be posted on the website, and, therefore, will need a three-fourths vote for passage at the Representative Assembly. Forms are being sent to the board of directors in September and also will be available from the Springfield legal services office at headquarters. The IEA bylaws can be found in the “About” section of the IEA website, www.ieanea.org. The Bylaws and Resolutions Committee has recently revised the model local bylaws as guidance to help locals revise their current bylaws. The guidance includes a narrated PowerPoint presentation. In addition, we have model region bylaws to assist the regions. These resources can also be found under Bylaws, Values and Vision in the “About” section of the IEA website. If you have questions, please contact Kristi Uzzo, Chairperson, Bylaws and Resolutions Committee, 375 Chesapeake Lane, Oswego, IL 60543, (217) 725-7764 or [email protected].
