On August 24, 2021, the Trico Board of Directors unanimously approved a Resolution changing the Director District boundaries in accordance with Trico’s bylaws.
Each District is represented by a Director and the boundaries determine who is eligible to be nominated and elected as a Director in the District. The change was made to maintain an equitable number of Members in each District, and account for growth that has occurred and is projected to occur in several Districts. In accordance with the bylaws, below is a copy of the Resolution. Above is a map showing the new District boundaries. For a more detailed map, you can view our Outage Map that allows you to zoom in on your address.
Notice: The new District boundaries have been established for the purpose of nominating Directors and electing Directors at the next Annual Meeting on April 9, 2022. Each Member receiving electric service from Trico in more than one District shall, within thirty (30) days of this Notice, select the District in which such Member wishes to be deemed a Member and provide Trico with written notice of that selection. If no selection is received, Trico will assign such Member to a District. Selections may be sent to Trico at memberservices@trico.coop or 8600 W. Tangerine Rd., Marana, AZ 85658. If you have questions, please contact Trico at (520) 744‑2944. If you receive service in only one District, then you do not need to submit a selection.
