Ballots were mailed April 17, 2009, by TrueBallot Inc. to all American Maritime Officers deep-sea, Great Lakes and inland waters book members at their home addresses for a secret-ballot referendum on the proposed development of AMO headquarters approved by the AMO National Executive Board, including the sale of 6.5 acres of land and buildings owned outright by AMO to the AMO Safety and Education Plan and the construction of a new headquarters building on a site owned outright by AMO in Dania Beach, Fla.

The 90-day secret ballot referendum is being administered by independent firm TrueBallot Inc. Included in the ballot package is a detailed explanation of the proposed sale and development, including associated costs and parameters.
