A cooperative is powered by three different, but vitally important, groups — members, elected trustees and employees. Between the three, management of the cooperative’s business is tasked to those elected to serve on the cooperative board. These nine individuals act as representatives and the collective voice for the defined districts of CHELCO. They take the information provided by the members and the action of the cooperative staff and use it to ensure reliable, safe service and the sustainability and health of our cooperative.
