Um. I am tending towards Syd's view. Giving the chair *all* the choice
seems a slight cop-out. 

I'd ask her (if no other candidate appears) to recommend
to the Council how she proposes to use the list of volunteers
and we'd very likely endorse it. But the formal letter should then
come from the Council.
