Meeting Notices - Information

Request meeting, election notice via magazine or post card mailing

OCSEA leaders are encouraged to use the Online Meeting Notice form to request meeting, nomination, election, and convention delegate elections notices in the Public Employee Quarterly, or alternatively, by a special post card mailing at your subordinate body's expense. Paper forms are still available.

MAGAZINE   Now through April 2, 2012 OCSEA is accepting meeting notices for publication in the Spring 2012 issue of the Public Employee Quarterly. To adhere with the 15-day election notice requirement, election-related meetings published in the next issue must take place on or after May 21, 2012.

SPECIAL MAILING   If your date occurs on or before May 21, 2012, you may request a meeting notice mailer at the expense of your subordinate body by using the online form below, or download the Mailing Request Form (PDF).

ELECTION OF CONVENTION DELEGATES OCSEA and AFSCME Constitutions require that all delegates to conventions must be elected in the same manner as officers are elected.  That means chapters must mail a 15-day written elections notice to the home of all chapter members.  Those chapters that do not conduct elections in compliance with this rule may find delegates challenged and possibly stripped of their delegate status. To assist you in the election of delegates, the convention call will include a form on which chapters can request that a 15-day notice of delegate election be mailed by the union’s central office to their members, or you may use the Online Meeting Notice form. The cost of this mailing will be deducted from the chapter’s future rebate.

TERMS OF USE Only requests that comply with the OCSEA Constitution and Bylaws and OCSEA policy will be honored, per the policy (PDF). Only subordinate body officers and / or election committee members are authorized to submit these notices.
