[SBU Board] Election

[Eng, Kim]

I agree with DT. It seems to me that we won’t have a vacant spot until the new board members join us. So, by a technicality, #2 makes the most sense to me.
That being said, I don’t personally care how we get the 12th board member, but I am definitely on the side of having 12 members.

I can't say that I've reviewed the by-laws but my sense was that #2 was closest to adhering to them.  I personally like Tim's blended suggestion.

I am opposed to option #2 but would vote for option #3 given that it works with the by laws.
