MMUA’s Board of Directors

A strong board of directors is critical to the success of MMUA. Its role is to represent the best interests of the Association’s members by providing strategic direction, supplying oversight for the brand, and confirming that adequate financial controls are in place. 

The Board consists of four officers elected to one-year terms, and a group of directors elected to three-year terms which are staggered to ensure continuity of leadership. Each spring MMUA’s nominating committee seeks candidates who wish to be considered for board service. New members are seated after a vote of the full membership at the annual meeting in August.

Call for nominations

Two seats are open this year for regular members due to the regular rotation process and the addition of one board seat as allowed by the bylaws. In addition, one seat that may only be filled by a mayor, city council member, or a municipal utilities commission member will be open.

If you represent a regular MMUA member utility, are willing to accept responsibility for governance, and are available to actively participate as a Board member, please contact Karleen Kos to declare your interest and learn more about the nominations process.
