HB5816 amends the Fire Protection District Act to change the appointment and removal process for trustees in fire protection districts. Trustees in counties with populations under 3,000,000 are appointed by the county board. Trustees in larger counties are appointed by the presiding officer of the county board. Trustees can be removed by the presiding officer if they have a conflict of interest, provided they abstain from voting. Trustees must publicly disclose any interest in contracts. Trustees can serve on not-for-profit boards if they abstain from related votes.
