LCRCC members are asked to signup as a voting member for one team. Each team starts with 5 voting members. The objective is to match volunteer time and skills with the mission or activity of the team.
It also looks like one of the MAJOR objectives was to make certain their people had majority control of the important Teams
Notice how a controlling number of each team's "voting" members had already been selected by THEM?
So much for showing respect for our Volunteers,
Not that they had done much of that in the Past.
Ask them how many of the major volunteers were invited to the Inauguration in Des Moines?
I was given the explanation by one of the Executives that the new system was to prevent a small number of people from having undue influence by being on more than one Committee/Team
So instead they just made sure THEIR people were the only ones who had influence by appointment rather being more involved than in just one Committee/Team?
I mean the people who DID actively participate in multiple Committees/Teams were among the more active Volunteers so it make perfect sense to penalize them..
Also under the Old System we went from a Committee which HAD to take up a collection during each meeting because we did not have enough money in th bank to cover one meeting to-
One that sometimes had as many as 200 attending our meetings, highly sucessful Events and when Cindy Golding took over 20K in the Bank
God FORBID we continue a system that was SO sucessful
No foiks it was never about
Respecting our Volunteers
Or their Time
It was always about
POWER
and CONTROL
The members of the Committee cannot be allowed to make their own choices those choices must be made FOR them by their Betters,
The Exectives will ensure that the "Right" people are in charge of the Teams and the Peons can do what they are told and remember to keep their places,
Unless they vote differently?
Remember there IS a section of the County Constitution which says.
The Executive Committee is subject to the orders of the Linn County Central Committee, and none of its acts shall conflict with actions of the Linn County Central Committee
All it would take would be one motion
I move that the members of the various Teams shall ALL have the same voting rights
And a majority Vote.
