DCCU Announces Candidates for 2025 Board of Directors

The Governance Committee has nominated Angie M. Simonetti, Michael P. Blinn, and Janet P. Mangun as candidates for election to DuPont Community Credit Union’s Board of Directors for 2025.

 

Nomination By Petition

There are three expiring terms for positions currently held by Angie M. Simonetti, Michael P. Blinn, and Janet P. Mangun. If a member desires to serve on the Board of Directors but has not been nominated by the Governance Committee, he/she may be nominated by petition, which must be signed by 1% of the DCCU membership as of June 30, 2024. The petition forms and procedures are available by email to Nominations@mydccu.com and must be submitted by Thursday, October 31, 2024.

It is important to note that an election will not be conducted when the number of nominees equals the number of positions to be filled. It would be an election by acclamation. However, if a member successfully completes the nomination by petition process and is added to the slate, the election period will start in January 2025.
