Alberta Barley holds its elections every fall during
regional meetings. Any barley farmer is eligible to
become a delegate or a director in 2014 so long as
they have paid a service charge in 2012, 2013 or
2014 (
according to Section 17 of the Alberta Barley
Plan Regulation
).
Alberta Barley is governed by a nine-person board of
directors: Six representing individual regions and three
directors-at-large. Following the annual general meeting
each year, the board of directors elects the executive,
which is made up of the chair and the vice-chair.
This year, there are two regional director positions
(regions 1 and 2), and one director-at-large position
open for election.
Nominations for these positions
must be received at the Alberta Barley office by
4:30 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 31, 2014.
Balloting will take place at the regional meetings. Votes
for regional directors will be tabulated and announced
at the regional meetings, and votes for the director-at-
large will be tabulated and announced at the December
2014 annual general meeting.
