Trustee resigns

Mar­i­on Com­er, York Elec­tric Coop­er­a­tive, Inc. (YEC) mem­ber serv­ing as a Trustee for Dis­trict 2, sub­mit­ted his res­ig­na­tion to the YEC Board of Trustees in April. The employ­ees of YEC, fel­low board mem­bers and the com­mu­ni­ties we serve appre­ci­ate his sup­port and ded­i­cat­ed work dur­ing his 12 years of ser­vice.

Com­er was always an advo­cate for reli­able ser­vice for YEC mem­bers. He knew from his years of equip­ment sales that good mate­ri­als, good tools and good peo­ple can get the job done. Speak­ing of those peo­ple, Com­er was always sup­port­ive of tak­ing care of our great­est asset— our employees—so that we can con­tin­ue tak­ing care of YEC mem­bers. The YEC team is grate­ful for his con­tri­bu­tion to our coop­er­a­tive.

Upon his res­ig­na­tion, the Board of Trustees vot­ed to leave this seat vacant until the mem­bers of the coop­er­a­tive can vote on qual­i­fied can­di­dates at the 2024 annu­al meet­ing of mem­bers. Details on the qual­i­fi­ca­tions for inter­est­ed can­di­dates will be pub­lished in the November/December 2023 local pages of South Car­oli­na Liv­ing. Please note, the elect­ed can­di­date to fill the vacant seat will be required to run again in 2025 for this seat’s nor­mal three-year term.
