USA Zones and Their Districts (to be effective Jun3 2009)

Rotary International's Board of Directors are elected by Rotary's 34 zones. Rotary Bylaws require the composition of the zones to be reviewed at least every eight years to ensure that each zone has approximately the same number of Rotarians.

At its January 2008 meeting, Rotary International's Board of Director approved a realignment of zones. The decision states: 146. 2007-08 Zones Review Committee Report

DECISION: The Board

1. in accordance with RI Bylaws section 12.010.4. requiring the Board to periodically review the composition of zones to maintain an approximately equal number of Rotarians in each zone, agrees to realign the 34 zones and sectioning within zones as shown in Exhibit E;

2. recognizes that RI Bylaws section 12.010.6. provides that no section shall be created, modified, or eliminated over the objection of a majority of the clubs in the zone;

3. requests the general secretary to post the new zones structure and sectioning within zones on the RI Web site and on the Governors’ Forum where available, so that districts and clubs have an opportunity to review the adjusted zones and sections within zones;

4. requests the president to appoint a three-member committee of the Board, with liaison trustee, to

a. establish an implementation schedule for changeover to the new zones structure, which schedule shall go into effect for membership on the nominating committee for the selection of directors-nominee to be elected at the 2010 convention;

b. consider other issues attendant to a revised zones structure, such as the future appointment of RRIMCs and RRFCs, including the timeline for making such appointments, and the organization of future Rotary Institutes and GETS; for report to the Board at its June 2008 meeting;

5. agrees that the new zone structure will first be applicable to the Nominating Committee for RI President that meets in August 2009.
