The approved amendment proposed that a new section be added to the bylaws as follows:

A. The Executive Board may create appointed offices.  These offices will be filled by the Board following a call for volunteers. Vacancies will be filled in the same manner.

B. Persons filling these offices will serve for two years initially and will by mutual agreement be renewed thereafter on an annual basis.

C. Appointed officers are non-voting members of both the Executive Board and the Steering Committee.  Each appointed officer may also be an ex-officio member of an appropriate committee.
