PROPOSED BYLAW CHANGE
On this year’s election ballot, the board is proposing the following bylaw change added under:

Article I, Section 5. Member Newsletter
The cost to produce Circuits, the member newsletter, is included in the Cooperative’s operating costs and is paid monthly by each member through their electric rate.

We have identified an opportunity to reduce our postage costs for the monthly member newsletter. In order to meet the U.S. Postal Service requirements, we need to amend our bylaws before we begin the application process. If the membership votes to approve the bylaw change, we will apply for the new postage rate, which will save the cooperative a significant amount in annual postage costs.

Look for your election ballot to arrive in April.
