Bill Summary
CONCERNING CLARIFICATION OF THE CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH AN UNCONTESTED ELECTION IN A SPECIAL DISTRICT DIRECTOR DISTRICT MAY BE CANCELED.
AI Summary
This bill clarifies the conditions under which an election for a special district director district can be canceled. Specifically, the bill allows a special district's governing body to cancel an election for one or more director districts if the board has previously adopted a resolution dividing the district into director districts and designating that directors will be elected by eligible electors within each district. A "director district" is defined as the area represented by one director within a special district. The bill modifies existing election cancellation rules to permit partial election cancellations in these specific circumstances, which was not previously allowed. The legislation applies to elections held on or after its effective date, which will be at 12:01 a.m. following the ninety-day period after the general assembly's final adjournment, subject to potential referendum. The change aims to provide more flexibility for special districts in managing their election processes when only one candidate is running for a specific director district.
