DISTRICT MEETINGS/ELECTIONS

SECO Energy’s service area is divided into nine geographic Districts. Each District is entitled to one Trustee to represent it in Cooperative affairs on the Board. Every year, three District Meetings are held to elect Trustees. SECO Energy is holding District Meetings/elections in Districts 1, 3, and 5. Drive-thru voting is available at each meeting – we hope you will join us! At the conclusion of each meeting, a drawing will be held from all registered attendees for three (3) $250 and twenty (20) $25 electric bill credits. Winners will be notified the following week based on their notification preferences set in StormCenter.

Cooperatives like SECO Energy that continue to hold District Meetings/elections require members to physically attend their District Meeting and cast a vote for a Trustee candidate, per Florida Statute. Due to the Statute and SECO’s Bylaws, members currently cannot cast a vote online, by phone or by mail.

 

DISTRICT MEETING AND ELECTION REQUIREMENTS

 

The following registration requirements ensure election compliance:

  • Only the person, or the spouse of the person, whose name appears on the official Cooperative records may register to vote at a District Meeting. Members with more than one account may only vote once.
  • Each member or member’s spouse must present identification at the time of registration.
  • Voting by members other than members who are natural persons (e.g. corporations or other entities) shall be allowed upon presentation of satisfactory evidence entitling the person to vote on behalf of the member.

  • Please bring this notice or your SECO bill and photo ID to the meeting. SECO Energy does not endorse any candidate.
