AN ACT To repeal sections 46.040, 46.088, and 46.133, RSMo, and to enact in lieu thereof three new sections relating to counties, with a referendum clause.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to repeal and reenact several sections of Missouri's county laws. The key provisions are: 1. Consolidating Polk County into Greene County upon voter approval, where the more populous Greene County would assume all authorities, debts, duties, liabilities, powers, responsibilities, and obligations of the less populous Polk County. 2. Modifying the boundaries of certain counties, including changing the northwest corner of township 31 to township 34 in section 46.088. 3. Submitting the bill to Missouri voters for approval or rejection in the November 2020 election or a special election called by the governor. If approved, the consolidation and boundary changes would take effect on November 1, 2022.
