Revision of APA-AICP Elections 2016 from Thu, 05/05/2016 - 12:49
Chapter and Division Leadership Elections
The Louisiana Chapter and most APA divisions are inviting nominations for leadership positions. Chapter or division leadership is a great way to serve APA and the planning profession, expand your network, and meet new colleagues. If you are an AICP member, service as a chapter or division leader is eligible for CM credit.
All Louisiana Chapter officer positions open for election:
- Chapter President (this is a 3-yr term ending in 2017)
- Chapter Secretary
- Vice President of Finance
- Vice President of Public Information
- Vice President of Membership
- Professional Development Officer
- Section Directors:
- Acadiana
- Capital (running again despite recent election to get in sync with the APA consolidated elections process.)
- Metro New Orleans
- North Louisiana
Chapter President Lydia Jemison, AICP will be forming an elections committee to manage this process. Please consider serving on this committee.
