What’s in it

This bill relates to conducting elections for benefited recreational lake and water quality districts. Code chapter 357E requires elections for a proposed tax levy upon the establishment of a benefited recreational lake district, water quality district, or combined district; for the selection of trustees of the district; and for incurring an indebtedness. Current law states that an election under Code chapter 357E does not need to be conducted by the county commissioner of elections and that judges shall be appointed by the county board of supervisors from among the registered voters of the district to be in charge of the election. The bill requires the county commissioner of elections to conduct elections held pursuant to Code chapter 357E and removes judges from the election process.
