So I would like to call a vote for adding the positions I propose, including
the directors and with the proviso that the Bylaws will be appropriately
amended. We can do this after convening the new Board, but it is would be
beneficial to do it now and try to get people in for these roles.

The new positions are good ideas.
Adding positions requires board approval. It would be good to have a
position description suitable for inclusion the P&P manual as part of the
proposal.
Adding a director probably requires a bylaws amendment. (Currently the
bylaws say we have 3 directors, so they need to be updated.)
I checked the bylaws for committee mgr appointment procedures and will amend
the notice.
