What is the Member Advisory Committee (MAC)?
Capital Electric's MAC is comprised of co-op members who are interested in what is happening at the co-op. They attend meetings in March and September and Capital Electric staff update them on current topics and welcome questions and feedback.
To ensure we obtain feedback from a diverse group of our membership, we ask that members interested in serving on the MAC complete a simple application. The Board of Directors will evaluate and approve the applications in order to obtain the best overall representation of our membership.
During the meetings we ask for feedback on important topics and on decisions we need to make to benefit the membership. When we consolidated our transmission and substation assets with Central Power a few years ago, we ran the idea by our member advisory group first. That June, we brought the consolidation issue to the annual meeting for a vote. By educating member representatives prior to the annual meeting, we were able to spread the word about the importance of the merger in a more efficient way. This process allowed questions to be answered in advance, thereby making the voting process easier at the meeting.
