FIRE DIST-BD OF NOT-FOR-PROFIT

Amends the Fire Protection District Act. Provides that under either of the following circumstances, a trustee of a fire protection district may hold a position on the board of a not-for-profit corporation that is interested in a contract, work, or business of the fire protection district: (1) if the trustee is appointed by the governing body of the fire protection district to represent the interests of the district on a not-for-profit corporation's board, then the trustee may actively vote on matters involving either that board or the district, at any time, so long as the membership on the not-for-profit board is not a paid position, except that the trustee may be reimbursed by the not-for-profit board for expenses incurred as the result of membership on the not-for-profit board; or (2) if the trustee is not appointed to the governing body of a not-for-profit corporation by the governing body of the fire protection district, then the trustee may continue to serve; however, the trustee shall abstain from voting on any proposition before the governing body of the district directly involving the not-for-profit corporation and, for those matters, shall not be counted as present for the purposes of a quorum of the governing body of the district. Effective immediately.
