Flathead Electric's regular board meeting is on the third Wednesday of each month. The board does hold other meetings when circumstances require. Trustees must be members of the cooperative and live in the area they represent. The by-laws also list information on the nomination and election process for board members. In electing the trustees, each member of the cooperative has one vote, regardless of the number of meters, the member has or amount of electricity purchased - it is one member, one vote.
Board members receive no direct compensation for their services.
However, Flathead Electric does provide a travel allowance and reimbursement for any expenses. It is the Board's responsibility to hire a manager to carry out the policies of the cooperative. Inc. All Rights Reserved.
