Everyone who uses MTA services is a cooperative member, and as a member, you have rights and responsibilities. Membership has many benefits, including reasonable rates, quality service, and the accumulation of capital credits. MTA also allows members to use the Palmer Headquarters facility meeting rooms for appropriate functions. Read on for more information regarding cooperatives and how they work. Cooperatives are based on democratic principles.
Members elect a board of directors and, when necessary, vote on specific issues.
The purpose of a cooperative is to provide a service to its members, not to make a profit. To learn more about more telephone cooperatives, visit the sites linked below.
