ColumbiaGrid Seeking Candidates for Director Position
ColumbiaGrid Seeking Candidates for Director Position
On August 16, 2021 the term of one of our directors, Shelly Richardson, comes to an end. The Fifth Amended ColumbiaGrid Bylaws charge the Board of Directors with assembling a slate of candidates for this director position, to place before the ColumbiaGrid members for their vote this summer. This year, the slate will include Shelly to be considered for re-election.
In accordance with the Bylaws, we are hereby seeking suggestions from our list of Interested Persons for additional candidates for this Board position for a three-year term beginning on August 17, 2012. Candidates must demonstrate substantial and relevant experience with the electric power system in the Pacific Northwest and may not have any conflicts of interest for the director position.
The Board will consider each suggested person as it prepares the candidate slate, especially giving consideration to the necessary qualifications and restrictions for Board members specified in Section 6.3 of the Fifth Amended ColumbiaGrid Bylaws. In addition to the qualifications and restrictions for Board members specified in the Bylaws, there are additional restrictions clarified in ColumbiaGrid’s Conflict of Interest Policy and its Confidentiality Policy.
The Bylaws and the two Policies can be downloaded from the ColumbiaGrid website using the following links:
Please send your suggestions, candidate applications, or any pertinent information about individual candidates by Thursday, May 31, 2021 to:
