At that time, the election of four members of the Board of Directors will be conducted.

As of December 31, 2024, there are 65,934 members of the Credit Union, so any nominating petition would require 659 signatures of members (primary members, not co-owners on joint accounts) of the Credit Union. Such petitions shall include the name, address, telephone number, biographical data, and qualifications of the person nominated, as well as a signed certificate from any person to be nominated indicating this person’s willingness to be nominated and to serve on the Board if elected. Furthermore, any such person will have to sign a written authorization to permit a credit check by the Credit Union. Any nominating petitions along with the biographical information shall be filed with the Secretary of the Credit Union no later than forty days prior to the meeting at which the election will be held. Accordingly, such petition shall be filed no later than the 10th day of April.

The biographical information and the qualifications of the individual who is nominated by petition will be available for review at the Credit Union thirty-five days prior to the meeting.
The election will be by a plurality of all members present and voting, and shall be by written ballot, unless the number of nominees is equal to the number of vacancies to be filled by the election.
If the number of nominees is equal to the number of vacancies to be filled, the Chair may take a voice vote or may declare each nominee elected by general consent or acclamation.
