Relating to: filling vacancies on a county board. (FE)

Summary

The bill rewrites sections of the statutes that govern how a county board fills a vacant seat. It requires the board chair to publish a public notice, sets a minimum waiting period before an appointment can be made, and bars the chair from appointing anyone to vacancies that arise after November 30 of the year before the term ends. These changes affect county board chairs, board members, and voters by making the process more transparent and by restricting late‑year appointments.
