FLORIDA ENGINEERING SOCIETY
ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY (AP No. 12A)

COORDINATION OF RECOMMENDATIONS FOR APPOINTMENTS TO STATE BOARDS, COMMITTEES AND OFFICES

It is the policy of the Florida Engineering Society that all recommendations for appointments to State Boards, Committees or Offices that involve or relate to the engineering profession be coordinated through the Society's Nominating Committee, and the Nominating Committee shall forward its recommendations to the Executive Committee for approval.

It is considered inappropriate for an individual chapter to support an appointee unless and until the position is known to be on consonance with that of the State Society.

In the event that an FES chapter chooses to express support for an appointee or potential appointee, either by request or by independently initiated action, it shall be the responsibility jointly of the Chapter President and State Director to contact the Executive Director and request prior concurrence by the State Society.

The Executive Committee of the Florida Engineering Society is authorized to act in behalf of the Society and its Board of Directors as necessary for timely action in matters of this nature.
