HB 1481 New Hampshire House · 2024 Regular Session

relative to appointments to fill vacancies to at large cooperative school board seats.

This bill changes how vacancies are filled for school board seats that are elected at large in cooperative school districts. It requires that any person appointed to fill such a vacancy must live in the same town as the member who left the seat. The law also outlines a specific order for filling these gaps, starting with existing board members from the same town, then moving to local selectmen, and finally the district moderator if no agreement can be reached. These appointed individuals serve only until the next district election, at which point voters will choose a new representative for the full term.
