The Electrical Association of Philadelphia Inc

“The association has members. The association's bylaws provide that the management of the association shall be vested in a board of governors. Since the board of governors only meets several times a year, it delegates authority to an executive committee that exercises all of the powers of the board in between board of governor meetings. The executive commmittee consists of at least 5 of the following members: president, vice president, treasurer, secretary, assistant treasurer, or past presidents. The board of governors, or the executive committee in their absence, votes to approve or reject a membership application. Applications must be done on a form provided by the board of governors and each applicant must be endorsed by at least one member in good standing. Approval requires a two-thirds vote.”

“The board of governors, or the executive committee in their absence, shall vote on any matter under the bylaws. This includes vacancies and newly created positions resulting from any increase in the authorized number of governors, which may be filled by personnel elected by a three-fourth vote. The board of governors also appoints an election committee each year, which accepts nominations from every member company in the association. The board of governors may also elect, with a three-fourth vote, a qualified individual to an honorary position on the board. This honorary position is non-voting.”

“Electronic draft copies are sent to the executive director of the association for dissemination to the board of directors with instructions to review the form, and raise any questions, comments or objections. Written comments and questions by the board, if any, are channeled through the executive director to the accountant for responses.”

“All officers and directors must complete and submit a conflict of interest statement annualy.”

“Any member of the general public may appear at the office of the association and request to inspect copies of the association's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, financial statements, and form 990.”
