2022 LCCA Election of Officers
It’s that time of year to start thinking about the 2022 LCCA election of officers coming up in the spring of 2022.
This year, the following positions will be filled by election: Secretary, Directors (3). The Nomination Committee will begin the process of accepting nominations of qualified members on January 15, 2022, through February 15, 2022. Any member can nominate a candidate, and any member can nominate himself/herself. As a result of the constitutional change passing in the last election, the LCCA will now have a total 5 directors, with three elected this year followed by 2 elected next year.
The following procedure is recommended for anyone seeking a position as an Officer or Director:
1. Review a copy of the LCCA Constitution and By-Laws and become familiar with the qualifications, term of office, and duties of the position sought. This information is provided in the LCCA Constitution and by-Laws found on the LCCA website.

All information must be received by the Nomination Committee no later than February 15, 2022. Failure to meet these deadlines may result in rejection of the member's candidacy by the Nominating Committee and/or Board of Directors.
3. In order to be considered for the office sought, candidates (or the nominator) must provide the information requested per the
Guide for Candidate Information Requested found here. It requires a biographical sketch including job and LCCA experience, qualifications for the office, and why he/she is seeking the office, why the candidate feels he/she is qualified, and what he/she want to accomplish if elected. Since space for the candidate’s text is limited, the wording should be brief and succinct. The information on this form will be published as submitted without editing on the election ballot. A picture of the Candidate will be included on the ballot.
