Proceed with the elections but ensure that the term would start on Jan. 8th

We have held elections at the winter GA since 2017 when we changed to the rotating system. We have elections for half the board one year and half the board, the next year. We had elections for vice chairperson and 3 board members at the winter GA 2 years ago on Jan. 8, 2022. I believe we should elect the board members at this GA, but they will not officially be seated as board members until the next board meeting on Jan. 8, 2024. Otherwise board members might have to serve for 3 years or we would have to call a special GA one month later, or have GAs that are progressively a few days or weeks later. Usually the election takes place before the end of the term, and then you have an inauguration ceremony soon after to officially change the guard. The alternate positions are also for 2 years, but we changed the rule to make unlimited alternates possible who replace board members based on seniority and voting order.
Keep the elections at the December 2023 GA but announce that the terms will officially begin on Jan. 8, 2024 and will be for the years 2024 and 2025.
