PAULDING, OH — The Coronavirus issue is dominating world news and impacting many areas of our lives. Yesterday, Governor Mike DeWine issued orders restricting all mass gatherings in the State.
Based on the governor’s directive, the Board of Trustees at Paulding Putnam Electric Cooperative has decided this month’s 83rd annual meeting will be held without attendance. Our Code of Regulations allows for a meeting held via video conference. As such, our office will be closed to the public, and our Annual Meeting will be broadcast via Facebook Live at 10 am on March 21. If you are unable to watch during the live broadcast, the recording will be posted on PPEC’s website at www.ppec.coop/annual-meeting and on the co-op’s Facebook page following the meeting.
“We don’t take this decision lightly, but the health and well-being of our employees and members must come first. We thank you for understanding and we encourage you to watch our Annual Meeting from the comfort of your home,” stated CEO and President George Carter.
One of the most popular parts of PPEC’s annual meeting is the giving away of door prizes. During the live broadcast, members will have opportunity to answer questions in order to win bill credits.
PPEC takes the well-being of our community seriously and encourages everyone to take proper precautions. You can learn more at CDC’s website.
