Hello GreenLane Members,

Any member in good standing who has been a member of GreenLane for at least 12 months and has actively attended meetings can be considered for the board. YOU MUST BE PUT ON OUR BALLOT 30 DAYS PRIOR TO THE ANNUAL MEETING TO BE CONSIDERED FOR ELECTIONS. The election process involves all of our members!
