Board of Directors Elections
City Market, Onion River Co-op's Board of Directors consists of nine members, elected from the general Membership. Elections are held annually in October and Board Members generally serve for a term of three years. When a Board Member vacates a seat before the end of their 3-year term, the Board may appoint a new Board Member who will serve until the next election. You can learn more about the latest election cycle here:
Applications for Board Candidates are available annually in early June and due by early September. Equity must be up to date and Member must be listed as the "Head of Household" on the Membership to be considered for Board candidacy. Candidates have a number of opportunities to learn about Board work during the application process. Candidates also have the opportunity to address Members at our annual Member Meeting. Members can vote in Board elections. Eligible Members will receive detailed information in their mailboxes with instructions on how to cast their online ballots once the election begins.
