Bill > HB1342

This bill urges the legislative council to assign a study committee during the 2026 interim to examine processes for establishing or revising county commissioner districts. Specifically, the study would explore whether the county executive, which refers to the chief executive officer of a county, should be required to publish proposed district boundaries and hold public hearings before adopting ordinances to create or change these districts. The study would also consider requirements for how districts should be composed and specific processes for counties with populations between 450,000 and 700,000, or between 185,000 and 300,000. This directive is temporary and will expire on July 1, 2027.
