• Final vote on motion to amend the CCA bylaws to remove the limit on the number of terms (years) a CCA officer may serve, that is, strike the words, “other than Treasurer, will have a maximum term of 3 years, and”.  The new sentence would read “All officers shall be responsible for keeping accurate records.”  thereby removing CCA officer term limits.  This motion was made by Jim Crosby and seconded Lisa Goehler at our November 14, 2013 meeting.

New Business:

• Election of CCA officers.  Nominations are for President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer.   Current officers are: President: Tim Tolson, Vice-President: Mary Rice, Secretary: Jo Ann Perkins, and Treasurer: Emery Taylor.  Candidates must be present or have spoken with a current officer about their willingness to serve if elected. 
• Change of email list host. Broadband Network Services Incorporated (BNSI) has hosted our email list for free for decades. They have exited this service and I’ve moved our email list to “mailchimp”   It still will be moderated and thereby protected from spam, and it will be easier to subscribe and unsubscribe.   We have about 250 folks currently subscribed.
