A Nominating Committee annually nominates KCU members to fill expiring terms on your Credit Union’s Board of Directors. Additional nominations for the Board of Director terms may be made by petition. Ballots will be mailed to all members in February of each year, if additional nominees are received by petition.
If no nominations by petition are received, a mail ballot election will not be necessary. Nominations from the floor at the annual meeting in March, 2009 will not be entertained unless unforeseen circumstances prior to the election result in an insufficient number of candidates for the vacancies.
How to Nominate By Petition for 2009
The petition must contain the signatures, printed names and addresses of at least 500 current Kitsap Credit Union members. Nominations must be accompanied by the Candidate Application (brief statement of qualifications and biographical data), the Statement of Consent (agreement to serve if elected) and Statement of Disclosure. These required forms are available from the Administration Department at KCU’s Bremerton Harborside office.
The petition and signed forms must reach the Secretary of the Board of Directors, Kitsap Credit Union, P.O. Box 990, Bremerton, WA 98337, no later than January 16, 2009.
