The committee on nominations announced the submission of incumbent directors at a meeting of the board of directors on Jan. 7, 2025:

• District 4: Jeffrey Martin
• District 6: Dr. Elena Sue Godwin-Baker
• District 8: Kayla Bartley

Terms of office for directors are staggered so only three expire each year. The ways in which directors may be elected:

1. By petition. Any 100 members of the Cooperative, acting together, may make nominations in writing, listing the nominees separately with respect to the particular term and the particular directorate district from which they are nominated, by Feb. 27, 2025.
2. From nominations by a committee on nominations. *During each director election, when the number of nominees is the same as the number of directors to be elected from a particular district, the nominee will be declared elected automatically and no balloting will be required.
