Notice of Health & Dental Referendum
2024-05-27 10:00 - 2024-05-29 17:00 | Upper Lounge of our building
POLLING: May 27-29, 2024
TIME: 10 AM to 5 PM
LOCATION: Student Union Building (SUB) Upper Lounge
Preamble:
Langara Students’ Union Health & Dental Plan Referendum
The Langara Students’ Union Health and Dental Plan provides over 11,000 students access to benefits including but not limited to: prescription drugs, mental health counselling, physiotherapy, massage therapy, vision and dental.
Service utilization has increased by 30% year-over-year driven primarily by dental claims. Combined with higher inflationary pressures, this has resulted in plan costs significantly increasing. The current fee structure is not sustainable and requires an increase in order to avoid reducing benefits.
Therefore, the LSU Executives direct that a referendum be held among Langara Students’ Union members from May 27-29, 2024 asking the following question:
Referendum Question:
I am in favor of increasing the current LSU Health and Dental Plan fee from $289.62 up to a maximum of $345.00 for the year 2024-2025, and to adjust the fee up to 10% each year after 2025, to account for inflation, if necessary. Members who have equivalent coverage may opt-out from the Health and Dental Plan and receive a full reimbursement.
AGREE DISAGREE
The LSU Executives further direct that the referendum question shall be effectively passed if a majority of those eligible students who vote signify their agreement with the referendum question.
The LSU Executives further direct that the current Health and Dental Plan benefits will be significantly reduced to fit within the current fee structure should this referendum question fail.

WHEREAS

Effective governance depends on streamlined decision-making and clear responsibilities.

AND whereas a smaller board size may enhance focus, reduce redundancy, and improve accountability by relying less on achieving quorum with a smaller board size.

WHEREAS

Meaningful student representation is better achieved through an active, well-supported board members than through a high number of underutilized positions.

AND whereas consolidating roles can lead to more impactful contributions during fluctuations in membership size and volunteering capacity from year to year.

AND whereas maintaining a large board may not be sustainable or in alignment with long-term organizational goals related to training and resource coordination.

AND whereas reducing the board size allows for a more strategic approach to streamline the LSU Board structure, provide meaningful participation, align resources for membership accountability, and support

AND whereas a smaller Langara Students’ Union Board will focus efforts on strategic priorities rather than maintaining an unnecessarily complex structure.

BE IT RESOLVED, AS A SPECIAL RESOLUTION, THAT THE MEMBERSHIP APPROVES THE FOLLOWING AMENDMENT TO THE BYLAWS:

The number of LSU student board positions be reduced from 12 positions to 7 elected positions.

Be it further resolved that the Bylaws are adjusted to accommodate the changes in the new structure.
