Board of Directors
Did you know that as a member of HomeWorks Tri-County Electric Cooperative, you are also part owner of this electric utility? We're not only owned by you and your neighbors, we're also democratically controlled by you. The members in each geographic district elect someone from the district to represent them on the Board of Directors, who set the policy that will guide the cooperative's operation.
We encourage you to contact the cooperative's staff or your director if you have a concern about your service. We also ask that you actively participate by voting in board elections every three years, and by attending the annual membership meeting in your district each May.
