Texas HB4241 amends the Education Code to establish a timeline for filling vacancies on independent school district boards of trustees.
Texas HB4241 amends the Education Code to specify that if a vacancy occurs on the board of trustees of an independent school district, the remaining trustees may not fill the vacancy by appointment. Instead, the vacancy must be filled at the district's next general election or through a special election. The vacancy must be filled within 18 months of the vacancy occurring. Additionally, the bill allows property owners subject to ad valorem taxation by the school district to bring an action against the board of trustees if the vacancy is not filled within the specified timeframe.
