Board of Directors
The board of directors shall consist of the elected officers of the DAMA Central Virginia Chapter.
The board of directors shall make all organizational decisions not delegated to the membership, and shall be responsible for the day-to-day operations and the protection of the assets of the local chapter organization.
Information on Positions
Length of term for all elected DAMA Central Virginia Chapter offices shall be one year. All local chapter officers are elected as individuals. To be eligible for local chapter office, an individual must be an individual member of the local chapter or an employee of a corporate member of the local chapter.
In the event that a current office-holder becomes unable or ineligible to complete the term of his or her office, a 90-day grace period shall be established during which time the office-holder shall re-establish his or her ability/eligibility to complete the term of office or shall be required to resign the local chapter office.
Upon the resignation of any local chapter officer, a special election shall be conducted at the next following meeting of the local chapter, said election conducted by the vice president administration of the local chapter. Should it be that the vice president administration position is the one that is vacated, the president of the local chapter shall conduct said election. Should a special election be required, the term of office for the incoming office-holder now filling the vacated position shall coincide with the already-established term of office for that position. Individuals elected through special election shall assume office immediately following said special election.
DAMA Central Virginia Chapter officer elections shall occur at the last meeting of the year, with the term of office running from the next January through December.
The President from the previous year automatically becomes the Past President for the current year. All other officers are only allowed to hold a position for two successive terms. In the first year after the formation of a chapter there will not be a Past President. Instead, there will be two Members at Large. After the first year, there will only be one Member at Large.
