HB4278

Illinois HB4278 amends the Park District Code to clarify the process for filling vacancies on park district governing boards.

HB4278 amends the Park District Code to clarify that an office is not considered vacant until it is declared vacant at a meeting of the board members. It specifies that vacancies on park district governing boards are filled by appointment by a majority of the remaining board members. The appointed person holds office until the next regular election, unless the vacancy occurs within 28 months of the next election, in which case the appointed person serves until the expiration of the term.
