CBA ELECTS OFFICERS.

CalCPA member Donna

McClusky recently was elected California Board of Accountancy president. McClusky replaces Baxter Rice who was the first public member to have served as CBA president. Another CalCPA member, Michael Snyder, was re-elected secretary-treasurer and Navid Sharafatin an attorney with Kehr, Crook & Fox in Los Angeles was elected vice president.

The election also marked the departure of four CBA members whose terms expired in 1999: Walter Finch, P.A.; Diane Ruben, CPA; Robert Shackleton, CPA; and public member Joe Tambe. CalCPA president Don Gursey presented each with a commemorative plaque on behalf of the CPA profession. Gov. Davis has not made any CBA appointments during the two years he has been in office. Senate President Pro Tem John Burton will appoint a new public member to replace Tambe.

With these members' departure, the CBA's ability to conduct meetings may be jeopardized if even one of the remaining six members is unable to attend.
