Local government: community service districts.

The Community Services District Law specifies the procedures for district formation, procedures for the selection of district governing board members, the powers and duties of the board, and the procedures for changing those powers and duties. Existing law requires the board of directors of each district to consist of 5 members. This bill would authorize the board of directors of the Sierra Cedars Community Services District to consist of 3 members, if the board of directors receives a petition signed by a majority of voters requesting a reduction in the number of board members and thereafter adopts a resolution that orders the reduction, as specified. The bill would also authorize the board, if the number of members is reduced to 3, to adopt a resolution to increase the number of members from 3 to 5, as specified. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for Sierra Cedars Community Services District.
