Neighborhood group elects Debbie as chair; Kirk and Stephen fill other officer posts

Debbie was elected chair of the neighborhood group at the April 13 KNACK meeting after a secret poll resulted in four votes for Debbie and three for Stephen.

The meeting opened nominations for chair, vice chair and secretary. Debbie was nominated and seconded; the chair position was decided by a private poll conducted by meeting staff. The poll results were read aloud and the chair announced: “Debbie is the new chair.”

Kirk was nominated and confirmed as vice chair by a separate poll; meeting staff reported seven responses and noted that the vice chair poll returned seven votes in favor. Stephen accepted a nomination for secretary and was confirmed by poll as well.

The newly elected officers will assume leadership as the group continues deliberations over proposed bylaw changes, including an amendment aimed at clarifying quorum requirements. Meeting staff said they will preserve poll records and include them in the meeting record.

The meeting adjourned after the elections and additional business; follow-up items and bylaw revisions were scheduled for the next meeting.
