These board members may seek to be reelected, but they must go through the same process as any other candidate. Once the deadline for nomination has passed, a ballot will be formulated that includes the names of all candidates listed in alphabetical order. That ballot then will be sent to all members at least 30 days in advance of the Annual Meeting. The specific location (room) of the election will be included on the ballot. Please note that all NABC members and designated representatives of member companies wishing to vote must be in attendance at the election as NABC bylaws do not allow proxy votes.
Nominations from the floor are likewise prohibited. Anyone having interest or questions about expectations of a board member should contact Chuck Sulkala at (617) 803-1120 or visit www.autobodycouncil.org.
