Interested in helping to guide the future of your Co-op? Run for a seat on the Board of Directors! Candidate applications are due August 29 at 3pm, and the election will be in October.
The Board of Directors plays a critical role in ensuring the continued success and health of the Co-op. They represent all Owners in setting the standards for the Co-op’s performance, engaging primarily in developing the vision and long-term viability of the Co-op. The Board uses the Policy Governance Model to oversee the Co-op, a system that emphasizes values, vision, and the empowerment and accountability of both the staff and the Board.
Attending a Board Orientation Session is required for candidates (current Board members are exempt from this requirement). There are three scheduled meetings, but an alternate meeting may be scheduled with sufficient notice.
- Tuesday, July 23 at 6:00pm in the Willy West community room (6825 University Ave.)
- Friday, August 9 at 6:00pm online (virtual meeting; join at https://meet.google.com/mdp-wdyu-icw)
- Saturday, August 17 at 12pm at Aubergine (1226 Williamson St.)
