There are to be to be three (3) Auditors elected in total, one (1) Western Region, one (1) Central Region and
one (1) from the Eastern and Atlantic Regions combined.

Transportation District 140 Bylaw, Article 13.02 – Audit Committee reads as such:
(a) The Audit Committee shall consist of three (3) Secretary Treasurers, one per region of the Local Lodge
affiliated with the District Lodge 140 and one (1) Trustee from the Executive Board.
(b) The Audit Committee will be elected at the convention for a four (4) year term. If one (1) of the Auditors
is defeated in Local Lodge office, his or her successor will become the Auditor for the balance of the

Any Member in good standing and meeting the qualification requirements in Article 5.07 of the DL140 Bylaws
will be eligible to run. Those qualifications are:

At the Convention, Regional caucuses will be held attempting to reach consensus on the Auditor position from
