When a water development district gains board positions due to population growth following a census, this bill provides a temporary process to fill those new seats until regular elections occur. Currently existing directors appoint someone to each new position from candidates nominated by at least 25 eligible voters in that district area, and the appointee serves until the next general election when the position is voted on.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
