We recommend you vote in SUPPORT of the bylaw amendments.

This round of bylaw amendments would: 

• allow for open nominations for members to run for the board;
• impose term limits on board service for member dentists at Delta;
• make the Delta CEO an ex-officio rather than full member of the board; and
• eliminate board veto powers over member-approved bylaw amendments.

Attend or participate by proxy on Thursday, November 15 and support these bylaw amendments to make Delta more patient-focused, transparent and responsive to its member dentists.

Sincerely,

Dr. Dennis L. Bradshaw
Dr. Christopher Delecki
Dr. Todd R. Irwin
Dr. Cynthia R. Pauley
Dr. Nathan G. Russell
