A SUMMARY OF HOUSE BILL 4011 AS INTRODUCED 1-13-99


House Bill 4011 would amend Public Act 157 of 1905 so that an elected township park commission would have an odd number of members as determined by the township board, but not fewer than five. The township board, on or after the effective date of the bill, would increase or decrease the number of members on the commission. If the number was increased, the township board would appoint the additional member or members, who would serve until the next election. If the number was decreased, the commission members then serving would remain in office until the next election. The bill also would provide that a vacancy on a township park commission would be filled by appointment of the township board for the unexpired portion of the term.
