3. Non-controversial housekeeping motions may be passed at the district committee meeting at which they are brought up. Motions involving large or long term financial commitments, and those amending the guidelines for district 14 should be brought back to the groups so their group conscience may be heard.
4. District committee trusted servants, elected and appointed (excluding GSRs) may be asked to resign after three (3) unexcused absences. Unexcused absences may be determined by the group conscience of the district committee.
E. District Elections
1. In October of each odd numbered year the GSRs should elect a DCM, Alt DCM, secretary and treasurer.

7. The DCM should provide the incoming area standing committee chairs with contact information (phone, address, e-mail) of our corresponding incoming standing committee chairs.
F. The General Service Representative (GSR)
1. "The general service representative has the job of linking his or her group with A.A. as a whole. The G.S.R. represents the voice of the group conscience reporting the group's thoughts to the district committee member and to the delegate, who passes them on to the Conference. This communication is a two-way street, making the G.S.R. .responsible for bringing back to the group Conference Actions that affect A.A. unity, health, and growth. Only when a G.S.R. keeps the group informed, and communicates the group conscience, can the Conference truly act for A.A. as a whole." -S26 The A.A. Service Manual 2011-2012 Edition

C. The District Committee Member (DCM)
1. "The district committee member (D.C.M.) Is an essential link between the group G.S.R. and the area delegate to the General Service Conference. As leader of the district committee, made up of all G.S.R.s in the district, the D.C.M. is exposed to the group conscience of that district. As a member of the area committee, he or she is able to pass on the district's thinking to the delegate and the committee.
