Why not tell the whole story?
15 August 2004
The Local 9 LEC has selected Rene Rodriguez (SFOOT) to be the interim Vice President for Local 9.
His confirmation as the interim VP will be at the membership meetings on 25 August.
We would like to acknowledge all those that interviewed and took the time to do so. The LEC stated that it was in fact a tough decision, as all candidates had admirable qualities.
Please extend to Rene your continuing courtesy and support.
Regular nominations for the permanent VP position will take place in Oct with the election period being in December.
Gee...that would put nominations at just over a month away and the election less than 4 months away.
