Public Notice – Bylaw Amendment Proposal

The South End Neighborhood Council (SENCo) will consider a temporary bylaw amendment at its upcoming general meeting to adjust the 2025 board election timeline.

Proposed Amendment:

“To amend Article VI, Section 6.5 (B) of the bylaws to provide that board elections for 2025 shall occur in January 2026, after which the regular November schedule will resume.”

Purpose:

To allow additional time for public outreach and to ensure that more neighbors have the opportunity to learn about board service, submit nominations/applications and participate in the election process.

This amendment helps us make the election process more accessible, transparent, and inclusive by allowing more time for community outreach and candidate recruitment

Meeting Information:

Monday, November 3rd @7pm 

Location: 4911 S Alaska St

The amendment will be discussed and voted on at this meeting. All community members are welcome to attend.
