CHELCO elections take place every spring. There are nine trustees on CHELCO’s board, and every year three of those seats are up for election. 

Districts 1, 7 and 9 are up for election in 2021.

A board-appointed nominating committee selects candidates to represent districts. However, all members are eligible to participate in voting each year. 

Results of the election are announced at CHELCO’s annual meeting, which is held in April.

Members may obtain a copy of the CHELCO bylaws to learn the entire election procedure.
