Government Action . . .

The Board authorized focus on refinements to the responsible contracting law, ability to develop and hire licensed electricians, special licensing proposal like those for solar, and more.

Workforce Development . . . The Board authorized continued development and funding for tools that electrical contractors can use to bring new people into the electrical trade.

I am closing my final report with a wish for your continued success and a special thank you to:
The presidents, officers, directors, chairs, committee members, staff and their spouses . . . who I have worked with in the last 23 years. They have made MEA great.
Barb Sevak and John Riley . . . for joining me in building a strong legacy of programs and over $500,000 in reserves. The three of us were rewarded with generous appreciation and a standing ovation. It has been a wonderful partnership!

Your current Leadership and new Executive Director Clara DeRosier... as you continue to increase services to members and customers . . . making MEA even greater as you Power Into the Future.

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays
