Board of Directors Elections
Build the Future of our Co-op
One of the benefits of being a Co-op Member—and one of our seven cooperative principles—is the ability to elect the Co-op's Board of Directors each year. Additionally, Co-op Members seeking to have a greater impact can run for the Board of Directors and help shape the direction of the Co-op’s future.

Vote in our 2025 Board of Directors Elections!
Voting for Board Members is now open! Eligible Members can vote online from Wednesday, October 1 - Tuesday, October 21. Voting is simple!
- Visit citymarket.simplyvoting.com
- Your username is your Member number, listed on the back of your Member card. If you are using your Member card to find your Member number, remember to only use the last 4 or 5 digits after the zeroes and drop the final digit (if separate from the other numbers).
- Your password is the first initial of your first name and your entire last name (all in lowercase). If your last name is hyphenated or includes an apostrophe, please leave them out. For example, if your name was “Co-op Member-Worker,” your password would be “cmemberworker.”
- Please vote for no more than 4 candidates. Once you’ve completed voting, you will be issued a confirmation receipt from the Simply Voting system.
Candidates will be chosen by simple majority. This year, there are four seats up for election; three seats are for 3-year terms, and one seat is for a 1-year term (to finish out a vacated seat). The three candidates who receive the most votes from Members in October will be elected for 3-year terms, starting January 2026 and ending December 2028. The candidate with the fourth most votes will be elected to the 1-year term, starting January 2026 and ending December 2026.
