1 National Fire Protection Association 1 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA Phone: Fax: M E M O R A N D U M To: From: NFPA Technical Committee on Telecommunications Elena Carroll, Administrator, Technical Projects Date: July 8, 2014 Subject: NFPA 76 First Draft TC FINAL Ballot Results (F2015 Cycle) According to the final ballot results, all ballot items received the necessary affirmative votes to pass ballot. 28 Members Eligible to Vote 4 Not Returned (Backstrom, Campos, Custer, Meyring) 23 Affirmative on All Revisions 1 Affirmative with Comment on one or more Revisions (Kasiski, Lang) 1 Negative on one or more Revisions (Kasiski) 0 Abstentions The attached report shows the number of affirmative, negative, and abstaining votes as well as the explanation of the vote for each first revision. There are two criteria necessary for each first revision to pass ballot: (1) simple majority and (2) affirmative 2 /3 vote. The mock examples below show how the calculations are determined. (1) Example for Simple Majority: Assuming there are 20 vote eligible committee members, 11 affirmative votes are required to pass ballot. (Sample calculation: 20 members eligible to vote 2 = = 11) (2) Example for Affirmative 2 /3: Assuming there are 20 vote eligible committee members and 1 member did not return their ballot and 2 members abstained, the number of affirmative votes required would be 12. (Sample calculation: 20 members eligble to vote 1 not returned 2 abstentions = 17 x 0.66 = = 12 ) As always please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
