Bill Summary
Amends the River Conservancy Districts Act. Provides that a trustee on a board representing a river conservancy district that embraces Jackson County may be removed for incompetence, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office by the appropriate appointing presiding officer or officers, without the advice and consent of the corporate authorities, by filing a written order of removal with the appropriate county or municipal clerk or clerks.
AI Summary
This bill amends the River Conservancy Districts Act to allow for the removal of a trustee on a board representing a river conservancy district that includes Jackson County. Previously, such removals required the approval of the "corporate authorities," which generally refers to the governing body of a municipality. Now, a trustee can be removed for incompetence, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office by the officer or officers who appointed them, without needing that approval. This removal process involves filing a written order with the relevant county or municipal clerk.
