Notice of National At-Large Director Election at the October 15th Board of Directors Meeting
The Arizona REALTORS® was notified on August 10, 2021 that in 2022 the Arizona REALTORS® is entitled to 5 national directors based on the July 31, 2021 membership count. Additionally, the State President is an automatic director so the final Arizona REALTORS® total is 6 directors.
The Arizona REALTORS® currently has 5 national directors (including the State President), meaning an additional director will need to be elected. Consequently, there will be an election at the October 15, 2021 Arizona REALTORS® Board of Directors meeting for one (1) NAR at-large Director position with a term beginning December 1, 2021 and ending November 30, 2024 (provided that the Arizona REALTORS® does not lose an at-large Director entitlement in the interim) pursuant to the NAR governing documents . The Election shall be by plurality vote.
The Application filing deadline is Tuesday, September 14, 2021.
Note: The Arizona REALTORS® Bylaws provide that: “As long as there are four (4) or more entitlements not assigned to a Member Board, those remaining entitlements shall be allocated as follows: positions shall be reserved to be filled by the AAR Immediate Past President, AAR President-elect, AAR First Vice President and AAR Treasurer. Any remaining positions are elected, as provided earlier in this section, from members other than primary members from Member Boards that have National Director entitlement(s). REALTORS® in Arizona, except primary members of an Arizona Member Board that has one (1) or more automatic National Directors by virtue of their total number of members, who otherwise meet qualifications established in Article VII, Section 6, may apply for election for NAR Director.” Thus, the NAR At-Large Director position is open to any Arizona REALTOR® who is not a primary member of the following Local Associations that have automatic NATIONAL Director entitlement(s): Phoenix, Scottsdale, WeSERV and Tucson.
