September 7, 2010, Introduced by Senators VAN WOERKOM, GILBERT, NOFS, GLEASON and ALLEN and referred to the Committee on Transportation.
A bill to amend 1954 PA 116, entitled
"Michigan election law,"
by amending section 269 (MCL 168.269), as amended by 1990 PA 7.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:
Sec. 269. If a vacancy occurs in the office of county road
commissioner, a qualified person shall be appointed to fill the
vacancy by the county board of commissioners. If a vacancy occurs
in a single-member county road commission district, a qualified
person from that single-member district shall be appointed to fill
the vacancy by the county board of commissioners. The person so
appointed shall take the oath of office, give bond in the manner
required by law, and hold office for the remainder of the unexpired
term and until a successor is elected and qualified. However, in a
county in which county road commissioners are elected, if the next
general November election is to be held more than 182 days after
the vacancy occurs, and it is not the general November election at
which a successor in office would be elected if there were no
vacancy, the person appointed shall hold office only until a
successor is elected at the next general November election in the
manner provided by law and qualifies for office. The successor
shall hold the office for the remainder of the unexpired term.
Enacting section 1. This amendatory act does not take effect
unless all of the following bills of the 95th Legislature are
enacted into law:
(a) Senate Bill No. 1108.
(b) Senate Bill No. 1109.
