As our membership has remained stagnant, it has become increasingly difficult to find candidates to stand for Director. While it was not long ago that the size of the Board was reduced from fifteen to nine, it may soon be time to consider additional reductions.
'''Proposal: The Society should consider linking the number of [[Directors]] to the size of the membership, with a the maximum number of fifteen, a target Directors capped at the odd number equal to or next smaller than one tenth the number of 10% regular and life members as of the membership1 January, and with a minimum of five.'''
This suggests that if the membership drops to 70, that the size of the Board might be reduced to seven members. Conversely, should the membership increase to 110, then the size might be increased to eleven. In either case, some amendment of the staggered election cycle would be needed, and a neutral method for implementing the change will be needed.
