Requires village elections on the same date as general elections take place on even numbered years
This bill requires village elections that are currently scheduled for the same day as the general election to be held only in even-numbered years. It also allows village boards to adopt resolutions to move their regular March elections to the general election date in even-numbered years, provided the village is located entirely within one county. The legislation updates various sections of the election and village laws to align with these new scheduling rules and includes provisions for handling transition periods for officials serving terms that would otherwise expire in odd-numbered years.
