This is an open meeting for Architect, International Associate, Emeritus, and Associate members of AIA New York to name candidates for the 2019 Nominating Committee Ballot.
Should I come to this meeting?
YES! All AIA New York members (Architect, International Associate, Emeritus, and Associate) are welcome. Better yet, bring another member. That could be a friend, coworker, former classmate, or ARE study buddy. At this meeting, you will have a say in who picks the next members of the Board of Directors and elected committees. Not only will you have a say in AIA New York’s democratic process and future leadership, you’ll have a chance to network with professional colleagues.
Here’s how it works:
At the meeting, submit names for members you want to see on the 2019 Nominating Committee. Then, the candidates will be voted on by all members through an eletronic election. The four candidates with the most votes will be on the 2019 Committee with Gerard (Guy) Geier, FAIA, FIIDA, LEED AP, 2018 AIANY President.
How do I submit a name for consideration?
Come to the meeting on Tuesday, September 25th, from 6-6:30 pm at the Center for Architecture. The person you nominate must be a member of AIA New York and be willing and able to serve on the Nominating Committee (restrictions below).
What does the Nominating Committee do?
The Nominating Committee selects candidates for the AIA New York Board and the following committees: Fellows, Finance, Honors, Oculus, and Design Awards. The Nominating Committee serves from January 2019 until June 2019 when AIA New York Annual Meeting takes place.
At this meeting AIA New York assigned members* are entitled to place names of their fellow members** on the 2018 Nominating Committee ballot that will be circulated to all voting members.*
Those members who are present or represented by proxy select the ballot candidates. Please make sure that anyone you propose for the Nominating Committee is willing to serve. The Chapter Board may then place additional names on the ballot at its discretion. If you have any questions, please contact Joseph Corbin, Membership Coordinator, jcorbin@aiany.org.
