Meeting Update

Posted on by

Thank you to all those who were able to attend the Wed. Nov. 27 meeting in Carman. We were able to achieve a quorum to carry out our meeting. The minutes will be available soon. We were able to put together a bargaining committee (our contract is up this June) and a bylaw committee (to work on reviewing and updating our bylaws).  The names will be posted on the committees page shortly. Other members are also encouraged to forward your ideas to the executive, the committees or through the communicators. Look for a survey on bargaining issues as well. Our local president reported that we will be examining additional health plan options and having a meeting for members before we have to choose a new health plan when our current one runs out at the end of June.  We will also be polling members on the end of year function. Look for more information on these issues and more in the posted mail. We continue to try to ensure members know about meetings and issues affecting them. Please help spread the word. In particular, let members know about this website, meeting notices, email contact and the option to have information faxed to their places of work if they do not have email access. We are planning a postal mailing soon.

Here are the remaining regular meeting dates and locations for 2013-2014. You can also find them on the events calendar.
