Okay,
we
are
now
up
and
ready
to
go
just
for
the
record.
The
members
of
the
actual
nominating
committee
are
Donald
Loggins,
Abe,
treff,
Melissa,
Minnick,
Corazon
Valiente
and
Naomi
lipnick,
who
had
an
emergency
and
can't
join
the
committee
meeting
today,
but
she
and
I
spoke
so
I
have
a
sense
of
of
where
she
stands
and
I
will
ratify
any
decisions
made
today
with
her.
A
Shahid,
Khan
and
and
Florencia
Chang
and
Jada
are
also
here
and,
and
you
know,
can
can
weigh
in,
but
the
final
decision
or
recommendation
will
rest
with
the
committee
members.
It
looks
like
we
are
also
joined
by
John
Olive
from
council
member
vernikov's
office,
and
this
is
a
public
meeting
by
law.
It
is
being
live
streamed
and
it
is
being
recorded.
A
Thanks
Donald,
so
you'll
give
the
report
at
Monday,
February,
13's,
full
board
meeting
right
and
if
you
don't
I'll,
just
get
it
started
with
the
background.
The
the
precedent
and
and
sort
of
tradition
of
this
board
is
to
renominate
the
current
slate
of
executive
committee
members
unless
somebody
is
not
in
good
standing
or
there's
been
some
turpitude
or
some
reason
to
not
renominate.
A
A
There
is
one
exception
to
this,
which
is
Gail.
L
Smith
wishes
to
not
step
off
the
board,
but
step
away
from
the
executive
committee
to
open
up
a
seat
and
Dwayne's
Joseph
has
expressed
interest
in
in
filling
that
seat,
but
that
is
the
the
first
vice
chair
is
an
open
seat,
and
so
with
that
have
at
it
who
wants
to
add
and
who
you
know,
Jump
On,
In,.
B
A
B
C
C
A
One
of
the
considerations
to
his
expression
of
Interest
was
also
maintaining
a
similar
demographic
so
that
our
executive
committee
reflects
the
diversity
of
our
board
and
and
the
fact
that
he
has
been
an
active
member
that
when
Joanne
can't
make
say
Borough
board,
which
happens
very
rarely.
But
you
know
he
could.
He
would
have
the
ability
to
step
into
the
role
and
and
at
his
vocal
Abe.
A
The
the
the
only
people
I
should
have
said
this
at
the
top.
The
only
people
who
are
not
eligible
to
run
for
a
seat
are
the
people
who
served
on
the
nominating
committee
and
I
did
mention
that
to
all
of
you
when
I
asked
you
if
you
would
serve,
but
if
anybody's
had
a
change
of
heart
and
feel
like
now
you're
getting
in
your
own
way,
and
you
really
wanted
to
gun
for
those
jobs.
A
B
C
D
Hey
thanks.
My
question
was
just
do
I
understand.
Dwayne
has
shown
interest
in
in
in
the
open
spot.
Do
have
you
heard,
maybe
I'm
I'm
getting
this
wrong,
but
aren't
there
like
multiple
Vice
chairs
and
have
any
of
the
other
Vice
chairs
conveyed
interest
in
I?
Don't
know
moving
up
the
the
vice
chair
chain.
A
So
because
the
the
answer
to
that
is
that
all
of
the
the
tradition
of
community
board
14
has
typically
been
to
re
renominate,
the
sitting
slate
unless
there's
a
reason
not
to
and
all
members
you
know
like,
like
you
know,
excessive
absences,
or
you
know
or
or
you
know,
anti-community
Ward,
14,
Behavior
or
whatever,
but
all
of
the
current
members
wish
to
continue
their
service
or
are
willing
to
continue
their
service,
with
the
exception
of
Gail
L
Smith
who'd
like
to
step
back
from
the
executive
committee.
So
that's
why
that's
the
open
spot.
D
A
D
A
Can
you
can
review
you
can
review
this
more
completely
in
the
bylaws
which
I'm
sure
you
read
and
just
just
didn't
memorize,
but
they
they
do
have
specific
duties,
but
it's
mostly
filling
in
for
the
next
one.
So
if
Joanne
can't
make
the
meeting
in
the
first
vice
chair,
then
the
second
then
the
third
secretary
actually
has
the
attendance
duties
and
vote
taking
duties.
A
There
hasn't
been
an
expression
of
that
desire,
but
I
don't
think
that
there
would
necessarily
be
a
huge
resistance
to
it
either.
I
I
think
that
we
were
just
you
know.
The
nominating
committee
can
decide
to
shuffle
people
around.
If
that's
what
you
wish
to
do,
I
think
we
were
also
trying
to
just
maintain
the
the
balance
of
representation.
A
A
And
just
remember,
everybody
cannot
everybody
on
the
board
if
they
have
served
a
full
year,
a
full
or
will
have
served
a
full
session
by
the
time
they
get
appointed
is
eligible
to
nominate
themselves
or
another
person
for
any
of
these
positions.
The
way
it
will
work
is
the
nominating
committee
will
report
out
that
you
know
we
met
on
February,
2nd,
Groundhog's,
Day
and,
and
we
propose
the
following
slate
Joanne
Brown
for
a
chair,
Etc
and
then
Joanne
will
thank
the
nominating
committee
and
say
now.
We
will
accept
nominations
from
the
floor.
A
Do
I
have
any
nominations
for
chair
any
nominations
for
first
vice
any
nomination
for
second
Vice
she'll
go
through
the
whole
slate
to
the
extent
that
there
isn't
if
there
is
a
nomination
for
any
of
the
position
and
this
this
isn't
it
it's.
This
has
certainly
happened
before.
If
there
is
a
nomination
for
any
of
the
other
position,
then
there
is
a
what's
it
called
an
election
in
the
following
month's
meeting,
the
March
meeting.
A
A
You
know
if
there's
just
a
one-on-one,
somebody
else
wanted
to
run
for
any
of
these
positions,
then,
and-
and
maybe
the
most
likely
position
is.
If
because
is,
is
the
new?
Is
the
new
nominee?
You
know
somebody
else
might
say:
well,
hey
I
wouldn't
have
minded
that
seat
and
then
they
get
nominated
for
that
seat.
So
that's
how
that
works.
I'm.
Sorry,
if
I
went
on
too
exhaustively.
C
A
So
yeah
they
do.
They
can't
just
say
these
are
the
folks
you
all
mix
them
up.
They
have
to
say
this
is
the
person
for
this
job.
This
is
the
person
for
that
job,
but
that
would
be
fun.
We
could
just
do
like
an
executive
committee
musical
chairs,
okay,
just
just
out
of
curiosity
too
I
guess
dude
do
we
know
that
all
of
these
people
do
want
to
be
nominated.
B
A
I
will
also
just
give
everybody
a
call
if
this
is
who
you're
going
with
I'll
call
them
one
more
time
and
say
that
they
are
going
to
be
nominated,
because
you
know,
if
they've
had
second
thoughts
in
the
meantime,
this
would
be
the
time
before
you
get
there
and
report
them
out.
My
sense
is
that
it's
going
to
be
smooth
sailing
and
then
and
then
the
only
thing
we
don't
know
is
whether
there'll
be
a
nomination
from
the
floor.
B
A
A
So
you
know
there
might
be
some
Shifting
the
next
time
around
and
I
think
we've
got
some
really
good
people
in
committee,
chairmanships,
which
kind
of
gives
board
members
an
opportunity
to
you
know,
demonstrate
their
their
wherewithal
to
other
board,
so
I
I
think
we're
we're
sitting
prettier.
There
was
a
time
when
you
know
you
sort
of
wondered
who
would
fill
the
chairs
shoes
and
that
sort
of
stuff,
but
now
there's
like
a
lot
of
people
when
you
look
out
to
the
landscape
that
that
couldn't
wood.
B
Absolutely
there's
some
really
good
people
on
board,
but,
as
I
said
I'm
hoping
next
time
around,
that
some
of
the
several
people
run
for
different
positions
to
give
other
people
a
chance
too,
because
with
term
limits
you
know
it's
going
to
be
much
more
difficult.
I
mean
you're,
not
gonna
get
people
with
20
years
experience
on
the
board
anymore,
yeah.
A
C
A
A
C
A
We'll
see
what
happens
from
the
floor
on
the
13th
but
yeah.
The
reason
why
it's
maybe
been
a
little
bit
dull
in
terms
of
not
having
the
Intrigue
of
election
is
that
we
have
had
good
executive
committee
members
who
show
up
to
the
meetings
and
then
represent
in
the
community
and
bring
good
information
back
and
stuff
like
that
and
so
and
and
then
serve
on.
You
know
show
up
for
all
of
their
committee
meetings
and
just
you
know,
demonstrate
their
dedication
and
all
of
that,
but.
