An act relating to vacancies on union school district boards where the seat is apportioned to a town

Summary

The bill mandates that when a seat on a union school district board allocated to a specific town becomes vacant, the town’s selectboard must choose an eligible replacement. The district must notify the selectboard within five days, and the appointment must be made within 30 days, with the appointee serving until voters elect a successor. The rule applies to both unified union districts and union elementary/high school districts unless local agreements provide a different method.
