NOVEC's 2025 Annual Meeting
NOVEC is accepting nominations for candidates to represent Districts 3 and 6 on its Board of Directors. Any NOVEC member in good standing who lives in either district may run for a four-year board term; the Co-op’s bylaws require nominees to reside in the district where they are petitioning to serve. View the district map here.
The bylaws also state (Article IV, Section 7) nominations must include the signatures of 15 current NOVEC members who live in the district and be received by the office of the President and CEO “not less than 70 days before the next annual meeting.” The 2025 annual meeting is Wednesday, Sept. 10, so nominations must be received by Wednesday, July 2 this year; nominations are not accepted at the annual meeting.
Nominees “may not be employed by or have a financial interest in a competing enterprise of a business selling electric energy to NOVEC” (Article IV, section 5). When a NOVEC membership is held by two people, one, but not both, may be elected for a position on the board.
An independent firm conducts background checks on all candidates and provides results to the NOVEC Board of Directors and the Nominees Evaluation Committee.
Profiles of board candidates will be published in the September edition of Cooperative Living. More information about the candidates will also be posted on this webpage. In addition, a packet of information about the election and the annual meeting will be mailed to members.
