Summary

The bill wipes out dozens of current sections of Chapter 79 that regulate fourth‑class cities and installs forty new sections covering city limits, officer elections, term limits, ward organization, and pay. It would affect every municipality classified as a fourth‑class city by changing how mayors, aldermen, police, and other officials are chosen and compensated. The changes were intended to modernize local government but the measure did not pass.
