Seven States Power Corporation directors elected Nov. 3 in Murfreesboro, TN, are, from left, Keith Hayward, Greg Williams, Greg Fay, Rody Blevins and Bart Borden.
The Seven States Power Corporation’s membership re-elected four directors and elected one new director Nov. 3.
Meeting in Murfreesboro, TN, 7SPC’s members returned Rody Blevins (Volunteer EC, Decatur, TN; Division 4), Greg Fay (Clinton, TN, UB; Appalachian District), Greg Williams (Appalachian EC, New Market, TN; Division 7) and Bart Borden (Cleveland, TN, Utilities; Southeastern District) to the board. Blevins serves as 7SPC’s chairman, while Fay serves as vice chairman.
The sole contested election was for the District 9 seat previously held by Jim Nanney, the now-retired general manager at Alcorn Co. EPA, Corinth, MS. The initial vote resulted in a tie between Keith Hayward, the general manager/CEO at North East Mississippi EPA, Oxford, MS; and Mark Kimbell, the general manager at Gallatin, TN, DE. The tie was ultimately broken by a coin flip, with the Division 9 seat going to Hayward.
There were no candidates for the Kentucky District board seat held by Austin Carroll of Hopkinsville, KY, who has announced plans to retire in January.
Next up for 7SPC is a board meeting scheduled for Dec. 13 at TVPPA’s Chattanooga, TN, offices. Election of officers for 2017 is on that meeting’s agenda.
