Summary
The bill lets the presiding officer of a county board dismiss a trustee they appointed to a multi‑township fire protection district, but only if the county board votes at least three‑fifths in favor. The trustee must receive certified mail notice, have at least ten days to request a hearing, and be given the charges against them. This adds a formal removal process for districts in counties with fewer than 3 million people.
