Complete·6/30/25

Amends Delaware Code to redefine "inhabitant" for school board members and clarify election procedures.

The bill amends Title 14 of the Delaware Code to redefine the term "inhabitant" for school board members, specifying that a member deployed in military service is considered physically present in the district during deployment. It also clarifies election procedures for school boards, including the handling of vacancies and the election of at-large members. The bill ensures that if a candidate receives the highest number of votes both in their area and at-large, the person with the second highest number of votes is elected at-large.
