The members named to the Nominating Committee are: Anthony Cassella, Joseph Charles, Mark Ellis, Phyllis Graybow, Norman Lipshie, Ian Nelson, Nancy Newman-Limata, James Passikoff, Joel Quall, Bob Sohr and Maryann Winters.

The board in November also selected other members whom it will recommend to the AICPA’s Nominating Committee to serve as Society representatives to the Institute’s Governing Council. The members include Peter Berlant, John Kearney and Vince Love for three-year terms, and for a one-year term. In addition, the Society recommended that the 2004–2005 president-elect serve for a three-year term as well.

The Society’s Nominating Committee will meet on Jan. 8, when it is expected to nominate a president-elect.

The AICPA’s Nominating Committee is likely to meet in February or March, when it will act on the NYSS-CPA’s recommendations for the AICPA Council.

Nominating Committee Slate at Annual Meeting

During the Annual Meeting at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York, the Society announced the list of eight candidates it had received from members. Last year, the Society received more than nine, triggering a run-off ballot.

The Nominating Committee this year will nominate three vice presidents, a secretary, five at-large directors, and directors from the Mid-Hudson, Northeast, Rockland, Utica and Queens chapters, in addition to the president-elect.

As of this writing, a committee chair had yet to be designated.
