As
you know, the ADDA membership will be voting on whether or not to affiliate
with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees
(AFSCME). This election is being
supervised by Arbitrator David Hart.
Ballots will be
sent out on May 31, 2011. All members in
good standing (dues paying members) on the date the ballots are due (June 20,
2011) are eligible to vote. In order
to be a member in good standing, dues payments must not be more than 15 days in
arrears. An applicant for membership
becomes a member 30 days after submission of a signed payroll dues deduction form
and withdrawal of funds via payroll deduction.
If you believe you
are eligible to vote and you do not receive a ballot by June 1st,
you must call Arbitrator Hart at 760-729-5391 and

deadline to request a replacement ballot is June 9th.
Ballots will be due back on June 20th.
