FEC’s Board of Directors

People just like you serve on the Fayette Electric Cooperative Board of Directors. Your electric cooperative is a democratically controlled business. It doesn’t have stockholders, so the Board isn’t made up of the people who own the most shares and are looking for big returns on their investment. Your cooperative is governed by local people with your best interest and the Cooperative’s best interest at heart. And they are elected by you, the Member.

As a Member, you have a vested interest in the business of the Cooperative, and you are encouraged to participate at your district and annual membership meetings. Through the continued participation and support of Members, and the leadership of a democratically elected board of Directors, Fayette Electric continues to grow.

One of the basic qualifications for serving on the board is you must receive electric service within the district up for election – so that means all Directors are Members. These people are also active, community leaders representing the needs of their local constituents. The Cooperative’s bylaws contain exact details about director qualifications and the nomination/election process.

For more information regarding Director elections, qualifications, duties, and responsibilities and voting for Directors, please read the bylaws here.
