INCO elects 2026 executive board; Diana Velsey named chair
Summary
The Inter Neighborhood Council Organization voted to install its 2026 executive board at its monthly meeting; Diana Velsey was elected chair and four vice chairs were named. Membership completed nominations and a paper-ballot tally process; the new board takes office at the first meeting in January 2026.
Diana Velsey was elected chair of the Inter Neighborhood Council Organization at the group's meeting, and the membership selected Lisa Hewitt, Isaac Califf, Daniel Alvarez and Doug Tauber as first through fourth vice chairs, respectively. The board was chosen by paper ballot during a nominations and tally process that took place during the meeting; the newly elected board will take office at INCO's first meeting in January 2026.
The election process opened after nominations were solicited and a set of candidate statements were heard. Isaac Califf told members he was "happy to serve," and Daniel Alvarez said, "I just wanna make a change in my community and in Oxnard." After ballots were collected and tallied, the presiding officer announced the results and certified the new officers.
Tellers announced preliminary tallies during the meeting and the presiding officer later summarized the certified results. The membership noted that ballots and slips were used for each position in order (chair, then first through fourth vice chair). The membership was also informed that the new board will receive orientation and additional information prior to assuming duties in January.
The election was the principal formal action of the night; there were no ordinance or resolution votes recorded during the session. No motions to change the election process were made on the floor, and no challenges to the certified results were recorded in the transcript.
