Dear Empowered Community Administration representatives, Today a notification was received from the NomCom as to their nominations for Board seats 4, 5, and 6. Under the ICANN Bylaws, Section 7.8(c), “At least two months before the commencement of each annual meeting, the Nominating Committee shall give the EC Administration (with a copy to the Decisional Participants and Secretary) written notice of its nomination of Directors for seats with terms beginning at the conclusion of the annual meeting, and the EC Administration shall promptly provide the Secretary (with a copy to the Decisional Participants) with written notice of the designation of those Directors. All such notices shall be posted promptly to the Website.” Accordingly, ECA support staff have prepared the attached draft designation letters for your review and consideration. Please respond to this list and indicate whether you have any objections, concerns, changes, or not. Staff will be happy to forward the notices to the Secretary on your behalf after each Empowered Community Administration representative has indicated that they do not have any concerns. Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you.
