New DPBC Organizational Structure Effective Immediately

Some things are set in stone by DPNM & DPBC Rules County Chair – Elected (Bill Peifer) 1st Vice Chair – Elected (Cheryl Harris) 2nd Vice Chair – Elected (Tom Solomon) Secretary – Appointed Assistant Secretary – Appointed Treasurer – Appointed Executive Committee – Elected & Appointed (Ward Chairs + Officers) County Central Committee – Elected March 25th Rules Committee – Ward Chairs (or Elected March 25th) Resolutions Committee – Elected March 25th (Paula Farkas) (Carolyn Garcia Mack) (Steve Estrada)

My Goal is to Augment The existing structure with actual functional committees Five Functional Committees* Communications & Technology ACTION Committee Finance Committee Planning & Logistics Committee External Relations Committee Most work will involve cooperative efforts between 2-5 committees! All Chair/Co-Chair appointments are to be considered “temporary” * The County Chair and both Vice Chairs are automatic ex-officio members of all committees. Also, Chairs and Co-Chairs are automatic ex-officio members of any subcommittees within their committees. There will be a 6th Committee, to be discussed later.
