[Erin Seaman]

IGC members,

We are seeking members of the IGC who are interested in running for election for the IGC-EC (Executive Committee).  Please let me know if you would be interested in running, or if you would like to nominate someone.  The deadline for nominations is February 19th and voting will occur by email during the first two weeks of March.  Elected members serve staggered two-year terms beginning on April 1st and ending on March 31st.

The requirements for running are:

*         Candidates must be current members of the IGC (if you received this email that means you ARE).

*         Candidates can only run for a seat that represents their stakeholder group (i.e. an employee of a state agency can only run for a state seat; an employee of a private sector company can only run for the private seat, etc.)

Some background on the IGC-EC:  This committee (which is a subcommittee of the ITA<http://ita.idaho.gov/council.html> [Idaho Technology Authority]) provides policy-level direction and promotes efficient and effective use of resources for matters related to geographic information.
