6th October 2024
The Council of Trustees of the area of Olofshöjd - FR Förtroenderådet Olofshöjd - invites to the upcoming House Meeting.
This is the day when we account for this past academic year's actions by the current committee, hold elections for new FR deputies (board members) with voting power in our biweekly meetings, and select non-voting participating FR members.
This will also be the opportunity to select facility managers for our facilities, such as the café, the movie room at 326, the freeshop, the arcade room, the workshop, the arts and crafts room, the farming area, the beer brewing facility, the gym, and many more!
In these times, with an increased FR krona and a greater than ever budget, ever-increasing participation of neighbors and members in our facilities and activities, as well as negotiations with SGS, it is really important that you cast your vote on the serious matters our area faces, deciding on its future. That is, the future of our facilities, the character of our community, our activities, our engagement with the landlord SGS, as well as addressing your wants and needs regarding your housing and the student area.
Your participation is of utmost importance to the FR organization, as the deepening of democracy and accountability is called for, with the stakes being higher than ever!!!
You also have the option, besides voting, to run for elections in our council and become an FR voting member, a member, or be selected as a facility manager.
One can declare their desire to run for elections or participate on the spot.
Elections are held on a closed ballot if asked by any one participant. All students, both national or international, both full program or exchange, can vote and run for elections given that they live in the area!😁🗣️📢
So, PLEASE, do save the date, do come, do voice your views and opinions on any related matter, do run for elections and get involved , or at least come and VOTE for the ones you think have or can better promote, expand and safeguard our interests in our common facilities, our community, our housing and our area.
The student area of Olofshöjd needs you more than ever, and we all need FR Olofshöjd!
P.S.: Cookies and coffee will be offered as usual. The café will open at 18:00 as usual on Sundays.
