85th Annual Membership Meeting
As a valued member and owner of WESTconsin Credit Union, you are invited to join our 85th Annual Membership Meeting, which will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams on Wednesday, March 12, 2025, at 6p.m.
Candidate Announcement
We are pleased to announce that during the Nominating Committee meeting on September 25, 2024, both Colleen Mensing and Karen Flug, who are up for reelection this year, expressed their interest in continuing to serve. Their requests have been approved by the Board of Directors.
In accordance with the Election by Acclamation process, which was updated in the bylaws and approved by the Board in December 2022, no election will be held at our 85th Annual Meeting.
What is Election by Acclamation?
Election by acclamation occurs when a candidate or set of candidates is declared the winner without a formal vote because they are unopposed, meaning there is no other candidate or option to vote for. It typically happens when the number of candidates equals the number of positions available, or when no opposition is presented before the election deadline.
In this process, since there's no competition, no voting takes place, and the candidates are simply "acclaimed" or automatically chosen for the position.
It is important to note that Election by Acclamation requires the Board’s approval. This ensures that the Board still plays an active role in assessing the suitability of candidates for another term. Should there be concerns about an incumbent’s conduct or performance, the Board has the authority to address these before approving their reelection.
