Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to local government; permitting the Crane Lake Water and Sanitary District to have a three-member board of managers.

AI Summary

This bill allows the Crane Lake Water and Sanitary District to reduce its board of managers from five to three members, with specific provisions for managing this transition. Under the bill, the district's governing body must first approve the reduction in board size. Once approved, vacancies will not be filled until the board naturally reduces to three members. When the board reaches three members, new vacancies will be filled to maintain that number. The bill also requires the governing body to assign newly elected board members to different term groups (as defined in existing law) to ensure that board member terms are staggered, with no two members' terms expiring in the same year. Board members will continue to serve three-year terms, with each term beginning on the first business day in January and continuing until a successor is elected and qualified. The bill becomes effective after the district's governing body and chief clerical officer complete certain official notification requirements.
