This year we will be holding the annual meeting in the Denver area. Efforts will be made to provide live video of the event for those who cannot attend. Following the poll there will be an official vote of the council to set specific details of the meeting. Voting will be open for one week!
I would favor one of the later dates for the state nominating meeting because of time constraints. GPCO rules say that candidates shall inform the party of their intention to seek the GP nomination at least 45 days before the meeting and be registered as a Green 30 days before the meeting.We may want to suspend the rules to allow nominations from the floor at the meeting.
OK, It looks like we're going to schedule this for the 22nd, pending getting the room reserved at the Mercury, which I will attend to tomorrow. There will be a follow-up thread with some details. Look for an email with a link to that discussion.
We are on for the Mercury Cafe, March 22nd, from 9am-3pm. Lunch from 11:30am-1pm would be appropriate. Although the details of the agenda still need to be determined, I would like to keep things very simple. We haven't had much happening at the state level since the last meeting, which was late in the year. That being said, let's keep this event focused on the potential candidates and updates from the state parties (Denver, Boulder). It might also be appropriate to renew our officers, since we may not have another opportunity until next year. The last half of the meeting (after lunch) we could devote to some free-form discussion. We will have our candidates and local leaders all together, we might get more traction out of a brief group worksession. Any thoughts?
One item we could discuss is the posting of resolutions on the website. We passed a number last year, but they are not posted. I suspect that the majority of resolutions passed over the years are not posted. There are two “positions & resolutions” pages on the website, and they are different. One is under the “About Us” tab in the upper menu bar, and the other is on the lower menu bar.Michael HaugheyAJ Greens
WE must announce the annual meeting I think 3 weeks prior in some State Wide Public way. Perhaps on the GP Facebook page and certainly on our web site. Somebody has to get this up fast as three weeks is about all there is left to March 22.
Yes, according to the bylaws the announcement must come 15 days prior: From 4.1: "Nominating conventions and meetings to elect state officers must be announced by the Secretary in a newspaper of statewide circulation 15 days before the meeting. "An ad should be appearing in the Statesman (as has been the custom) and I noticed an ad posted to Facebook, as well.
