This decision creates an open seat for a community-selected Trustee. The Board is committed to filling this open community seat as quickly as possible.

There needs to be a change in the terms used; it has become clear that this will not be an election, and that the trustee eventually approved by the rest of the board will not be "community selected", but "community nominated".
