If a resignation is made effective at a later date and the cooperative accepts the future effective date, the cooperative’s board of directors may fill the pending vacancy before the effective date. The cooperative’s board of directors may fill the pending vacancy before the effective date, if the board of directors provides that the successor does not take office until the effective date.
