Cooperativa Eléctrica de Río Grande holds district delegate elections
The Cooperativa Eléctrica de Río Grande held elections this Sunday to renew delegates for the city's seven districts. Although only a single list of candidates was presented, authorities proceeded with the vote to allow members to express their support and reinforce democratic participation within the institution.
Elections took place across seven different educational facilities, with one designated for each district. The elected delegates will serve as the primary link between the cooperative's members and the Board of Administration, addressing service inquiries and community needs.
During the proceedings, President Sergio Galera noted that the cooperative is facing challenges due to the national economic climate, observing that an increasing number of users are seeking assistance with electricity bill payments. Silvana Baños, a delegate for District 5, emphasized that the role of delegates involves continuous community engagement, including managing information regarding scheduled outages and service updates.
