However, an 2010 Annual Report will be created and available on this web page April 1 for your review. After the meeting, it will be archived with previous Annual Reports that are available in the section at the end of this web page.

Provided below are documents that will be discussed for approval at the Annual Meeting and also will be in the Annual Report. Additional documents, marked with an *and information have been provided to help clarify the changes to Bylaws and Local Positions.

Proposed 2010-2011 LWVODC Program

Background on how the Proposed 2010-2011 Program was created

In preparing the Proposed 2010-2011 LWVODC Program,
- a general meeting was held on February 11 to discuss a recommended LWVODC Program and local positions to update and/or archive.

In addition, the members reviewed for the LWVUS Program two proposals to modify National LWV advocacy positions (A STUDY OF THE ROLE OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IN PUBLIC EDUCATION and A REVIEW OF THE LWVUS ARMS CONTROL POSITION). The LWVUS Program will be voted on at the Convention in Atlanta in June. If a new LWVUS study results, LWVODC will be asked to participate.

- the members present recommended a proposed 2010-2011 Program, local positions to archive, and the support of a study of the Federal role in public education.

- the A-Team at its February meeting approved the recommendation of the members at the Program Planning meeting and will present the Proposed 2010-2011 LWVODC Program to the members at the Annual Meeting for approval.

Regarding the LWVODC local positions, it was agreed at the Program Planning meeting that

  • Those local positions that were no longer relevant because they were outdated would be archived on our website.
  • There were other positions that were the same as a LWVNC (State) position and/or where the State position was stronger. They would be kept with the supporting text obtained by electronic link to the State's position.
  • Two other positions were clarified by slight changes in wording.

Local positions are adopted each year at the May Annual Meeting, and a national League study or review will be adopted at the LWVUS Convention in June.

Non Partisan Policy

The League of Women Voters is a non partisan political organization that encourages informed and active participation in government. It works to increase understanding of major public issues and influences public policy through education and advocacy.

The Non Partisan Policy is reviewed and endorsed or revised at the beginning of each League year and subsequently published in the VOTER. This policy was reviewed by the LWVODC Board of Directors in 2008 and approved.

---------------------

LWVODC Bylaws

The League of Women Voters of Orange, Durham and Chatham Counties Bylaws provide the framework in which the League operates its non-partisan citizen education and action organization. The By-Laws

- define the purposes and policies of the League and membership requirements,
- identify the duties and responsibilities of its Officers, Board of Directors and its Executive Committee and how they are to be elected, and
- describe the requirements and processes for the Meetings, Financial Administration, Programs and Annual Meeting of the LWVODC.
