At our last General Meeting, the election of the vice president position resulted in a tie.  While this has not happened recently, our bylaws do direct us when this happens: we are to have an election at the next General Meeting.  On September 8, there will be an election for Executive Vice President for CUPE 474

On July 3, 2018 CUPE National President Mark Hancock approved the Bylaws for CUPE 474.  This work took three years to complete so it feels pretty good t have it done.  The office is currently working on making a pocket sized booklet for the membership, hopefully that will be completed this month.

The results of the elections June 9, 2018 at the General Members Meeting are:

Executive Vice President:  Result was a tie vote, there will be an election for Vice President September 8, 2017

Treasurer ; Stacey Tubbs

Chief Shop Steward ; Gord Flatt

General Vice President EPSB ; Mary Panchuk

General Vice President for OFSS and SA-ARC, no election due to lack of member quorum.
