SECTION 3.07. VOTING DISTRICTS
(a) The area served by the Cooperative shall be divided into seven (7) Districts, to be determined and defined by the Board of Directors. Each District shall be represented by one Director. In defining the district, the Board of Directors shall bear in mind the desirability of having the Directors well distributed over the Cooperative area, the size of the District, and the number of Members in the District. The present seven (7) Districts shall be as follows:
District #1 — representing Members in or near these areas: Warda, Winchester, Ledbetter, Waldeck, Round Top, Warrenton, Rutersville and east of La Grange;

A complete description of each District's metes and bounds is on file at Fayette Electric Cooperative's office located at 357 North Washington St., La Grange, Texas.
Not less than ninety (90) days prior to any Annual Meeting of the Members at which Directors are to be elected, the Board of Directors shall review the composition of the seven Districts. If it should appear that any of such Districts should be redefined in order to more nearly meet the above-mentioned objectives, the Board of Directors shall proceed to make such adjustments as it shall deem best.
(b) If a Member’s principal place of residence is served by the Cooperative, then such Member shall be entitled to vote only at meetings of the District in which his/her principal residence is located.
If a Member’s principal place of residence is not served by the Cooperative, then such Member shall be entitled to vote only at meetings of the District in which he/she is receiving electric service from the Cooperative; and if he/she is receiving electric service from the Cooperative in more than one (1) District, then he/she shall be entitled to vote only at the District Meeting of the District in which he/she has for the longest period of time been continuously receiving such service.
Insofar as government agencies, political subdivisions, corporations, partnerships, and firms are concerned, the phrase “principal place of residence” shall be construed to mean the location of the seat of any political subdivision, principal place of business, main office, or headquarters of any such corporation, partnership, or firm. The person or persons representing any such corporation, partnership, firm, government agencies, and political subdivision shall submit proof of their authority.
