TO: Key Municipal Officials of MMA Member Cities, Towns and Plantations FROM: Galen Larrabee, MMA President (Chair of Selectmen, Town of Knox) DATE: July 7, 2009 SUBJECT: Annual Election for MMA Vice President and Executive Committee Members Each year member municipalities have an opportunity to vote on the election of MMA Vice President and municipal officials to serve on the MMA Executive Committee. A five-member Nominating Committee is appointed to review nominations submitted by municipal officials and conduct interviews with those municipal officials qualifying and interested in serving as the MMA Vice President. The MMA Nominating Committee completed its task to put forth a Proposed Slate of Nominees for 2010. This information was mailed to member municipalities along with information on the petition process as established in the MMA Bylaws. It is now time for each member municipality to cast its vote. Enclosed you will find the Voting Ballot which includes the Slate of Nominees to serve on the MMA Executive Committee as proposed by the MMA Nominating Committee, as well as a municipal official nominated by petition. A brief biographical sketch on each nominee listed on the Voting Ballot is enclosed for your reference. The Voting Ballot must be signed by a majority of the municipal officers or a municipal official designated by a majority of the municipal officers, and received by the Maine Municipal Association by 12:00 noon on Friday, August 14, 2009. We have enclosed a self-addressed self-stamped envelope for your convenience. The Voting Ballots will be counted and the election results confirmed under my direction as President of the Association. Election results will be available by contacting the MMA Executive Office or by visiting the MMA website at www.memun.org on Friday, August 14, 2009, after 4:00 p.m. A formal announcement of the election results will be made at the MMA Annual Business Meeting being held Wednesday, October 7, 2009, at 11:30 a.m., at the Augusta Civic Center. Newly elected Executive Committee members will be introduced at the MMA Annual Business Meeting and formally assume their positions on January 1, 2010.
