Local Election Of Library District Trustees

Under current law, library district trustees are appointed directly by a committee appointed by the legislative bodies of the governmental units that established the library district. The bill allows the registered voters within a library district's service area to determine by vote whether their library district trustees should be elected. The bill also sets out how library district trustees would be elected, the length of their terms, and how they could be removed. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.) Read More
