Board of Directors
Being an electric cooperative member offers a unique opportunity to be part of the decision-making process in this business. Because HCREMC is a cooperative, it is owned by its members. That means members are responsible for electing other members to take leadership positions on the board of directors to help shape business decisions for the company.
Our service territory is split into nine districts with one member-director representing each district. See map below for district territories. If you have questions about your district territory, please call 800.248.8413 or email hcremc@hcremc.com.
Each year, three HCREMC board seats are open for election. Due to unexpected circumstances, an additional board seat has been added to the 2021 director's election to finish out an existing three-year term. Below is a listing of the 2021 board seats open for election.
- District 1 consists of Fall Creek Township in Henry Co., Salem Township in Delaware Co. and Union and Adams Township in Madison Co.
- District 4 consists of Stony Creek, Prairie and Jefferson Townships in Henry Co., Union Township in Randolph Co. and Monroe and Perry Townships in Delaware Co.
- District 8 consists of Franklin, Greensboro, Henry and Spiceland townships in Henry Co. and Washington Township in Rush Co.
- NOTE: The candidate elected to this district will serve on the board one year to complete the remainder of the current three-year term. The candidate must then run in the 2022 director election to serve an additional three-year term.
- District 9 consists of Dudley Township in Henry Co., Fairview, Harrison and Posey townships in Fayette Co. and Jackson and Washington townships in Wayne Co.
HCREMC is accepting nominations for candidates to run in the 2021 director election within the four districts listed above. Nomination deadline is July 30, 2021.
If you have been looking for a way to become more involved in your electric cooperative, this is your chance. Interested members of HCREMC, who live in the districts up for election, may seek election by filing a petition with 30 signatures of HCREMC member-consumers who support the candidacy in the same district they are running for. We encourage interested parties to download the Board Candidate Nomination Information Packet. Please call 800.248.8413 Ext. 119 if you have questions.
