Summary

The bill requires each eligible township to name a municipality or county by June 1 2026 and work with that unit on a reorganization plan. If a township fails to act or the municipality does not approve a plan, the township is merged with the county. The measure also sets rules for service districts, budget approval, and exempts townships that run fire departments or are part of fire protection entities.
