CDS Announcment: CDS Election Dates, Autumn 2020

 

The CDS is not only a beautiful place to live but also a community of interesting people who determine how the CDS is run. We elect representatives to manage the day to day, month to month work that makes the CDS wonderful.

The citizens who run for office are our CDS friends and neighbors.  Maybe you will decide to be one of them.

A government term of office for the 5 members of the Representative Assembly (RA) and for the Chancellor is 6 months, so 2 terms a year. December 1 through May 31, and June 1 through November 30 each year.

This election starting now is the 34th term for which the CDS community will be electing representatives. Here are the relevant dates.  Watch notices for more information about our election process.
