District meetings are held each year in districts whose directors are up for election. District meetings for members of Beltrami Electric Cooperative will be held in June for Districts 3, 7, and 9. The meetings inform members of current issues and programs associated with the cooperative.
Official business will be conducted at the district meetings, including the nomination of a director candidate. Nominations for qualified candidates from your district to Beltrami Electric’s board of directors will be accepted at this meeting. The top two candidates as determined by popular vote will have their names on the general election ballot in August.
* Note: Members seeking to run for the Board of Directors shall, not less than five (5) business days prior to the district meeting in which there is a director election, submit to the corporate office a completed candidate packet, as provided by the Cooperative, by which the Cooperative will verify said member’s qualifications to be an eligible candidate for the director position.
If you are interested in seeking a directorship position with Beltrami Electric Cooperative and desire more information, please contact Jared Echternach at (218) 444-2540 and request a director candidate packet.
