A bill for an act relating to the grounds for removal of a local assessor and including effective date provisions.

This bill amends Iowa law to clarify and expand the specific reasons a local assessor can be removed by the conference board. It adds two new grounds for removal: failing to meet employment standards or engaging in unethical/unlawful conduct, both requiring proof at a public hearing. The change directly affects local assessors and the conference board that oversees their removal process. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
