DESIGNATED  BOARD MEMBERS
The GGPNC By-laws specify:
Appointed Board Members. Nine Board Members ("Appointed Board Members") shall be selected by the existing Board in accordance with the provisions of Article IX D. Unless the Board finds by a Supermajority Vote that such interests are already sufficiently represented due to elected District Representatives active in such interests, or that no suitable representative of such interests has stated a willingness to serve, Appointed Board Members shall include at least one representative of each of the following: (a) business interests; (b) the religious community; (c) educational interests; (d)
recreational interests; and, (e) non-residential community or charitable groups.
In selecting the Appointed Board Members, the Board shall solicit nominations from groups representative of the various segments of the Area community and shall encourage groups in each segment to work together to nominate a consensus candidate. The Board shall attempt to select a representative or representatives from among those nominated from the constituent groups. In determining which additional Stakeholder groups or areas of concern should be included, the Board shall take into account the principles of diversity set forth in the Plan, as well as, (a) the need for representation of various identified Stakeholder groups in the Area in relation to the purposes of the Council; and (b) the nominated individual's potential for assistance to the Board in representing the interests of such identified Stakeholder groups and of all Stakeholders in the Area. In completing the selection of appointed Board Members, the Board shall give consideration to the possible need for representation of the interests of Stakeholders who are not members of formal groups, such as non-resident Stakeholders.
