On August 22, Mayor Nancy Steedman was elected to the Executive Board of the Municipal Electric Utilities Association of New York State (MEUA) at their annual conference held at Ellicottville, NY. She is the first woman ever to be elected to serve on this board. Steedman will serve as Vice President/Secretary this year and progress to President of the Association in 2016. Mayor Steedman said that she is honored to be elected to this board and looks forward to serving the electric utilities of New York State.
The Municipal Electric Utilities Association of New York State (MEUA) was formed in 1930 and currently has 40 members. These utilities not only bring reliable and efficient electrical power to our communities, but they also offer an important support/mutual aid system to each other during storms, flooding, fires and other natural disasters that might have taken out power to our villages. Training programs for linemen and apprentice programs are also a part of this organization. Membership is restricted to municipal corporations, rural electric corporations, and other organizations and individuals whose interests are compatible with the objects of the organization.
