Board of Directors Election

Democracy is at the heart of our co-op’s organizational structure. As an owner, you have a voice in the governance and direction of your co-op by voting for our board of directors. Each owner household gets to cast one ballot, voting for each of the three open seats on the board. The board oversees the governance of the co-op and hires and oversees the general manager. They are also tasked with supervising financial conditions and sharing the co-op vision to best serve all owners. Board members must be non-employee Lakewinds owners in good standing. They should have experience in strategic thinking, group decisions, and fiduciary reasonability. Each board member represents our owners for a three-year term.

2024 voting will open on Sept. 1. Vote on proposed bylaws updates and for open seats on the board of directors in store and online through Sept. 14 at 8 pm, and from 1-1:10 pm at the Annual Owner Meeting on Sunday, Sept. 15. Check back in mid-late August to review this year’s candidates.
