Bill > HB412

This bill modifies the provisions for membership on the Polk County Water Authority by changing the rules around member reappointment. Specifically, the bill stipulates that no member can be reappointed to the Authority for a period of two years after completing their second consecutive term. However, the bill also ensures continuity of governance by stating that all current members will continue to serve until their successors are officially appointed and qualified. This change appears designed to prevent prolonged service by the same individuals while also maintaining operational stability by guaranteeing that the Authority will always have members in place to conduct its business. The bill is an amendment to the original Act that created the Polk County Water Authority, which was initially approved in 1967, and represents a targeted adjustment to the governance structure of this local water management entity.
