The discussion and selection usually occurs two to three years before the date of the annual meeting for any particular city being considered. The PSA Constitution mandates that the annual meeting will be held in the South, Central, and North regions of the PSA once every three years on a rotating basis. Recently, the committee has leaned toward rotating the annual PSA meeting between San Diego in the South, San Francisco in the Central region, and either Portland or Seattle in the North. Surveys of members have consistently shown these cities to be the most favored.
