Dear APA-IL Member: 

Election time for the APA-IL Chapter Officer positions and the 
    Chapter Section positions is quickly approaching. According to the bylaws of 
    the Chapter, the Chapter members are to elect a President, Vice President, 
    Secretary and Treasurer for the APA-IL Chapter as well as positions for the 
    two Chapter Sections (Chicago Metro Section and Illinois State Section). 
    Terms run for two years and the next term of office will commence on January 
    1, 2015. Are you interested in running for a position? If so, you can submit 
    your name to the Nominating Committee for consideration to be placed on the 
    ballot. Or, you can ensure your name will appear on the ballot by submitting 
    your name along with a signed petition by 20 regular Chapter members in good 
    standing. The Nominating Committee will decide on a slate of candidates and 
    will release the slate to the membership in September. The election will be 
    in November. To learn more about the officer positions of the APA-IL and the 
    positions for each of the two Sections, you can visit www.ilapa.org.

The deadline to submit your name for consideration, or your name  with the signed petition, is Friday, August 29, 2014 at 5:00pm. Please  send it via email to Rob Kowalski, AICP at rob.kowalski at ci.champaign.il.us.  and indicate the position you are interested in running for. Please use the  same email if you have any questions about the process. 

If you have been considering getting more involved with the Illinois 
    Chapter of the APA but not as an Officer on the Board, there are several 
    different committees you can consider joining. There are committees for 
    Public Relations, Pro Bono work, Legislative work, Diversity, Professional 
    Development and more. Consider getting involved. It’s a great way to make 
    professional contacts and give back to the profession locally! Send your 
    inquiry to the Chapter Administrator, John Paige, AICP at j.paige at comcast.net or speak  to a Board member at the upcoming state conference, October  1st-3rd in Evanston. We hope to see you there.


Rob Kowalski, AICP

Chair, Nominating Committee
