What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill authorizes a town meeting to direct a town board to increase the
number of commissioners on a town sanitary district commission from three to five
if the commission is separate from the town board. The bill also authorizes a town
meeting to direct a town board to decrease the number of commissioners on a town
sanitary district commission from five to three if the commission is separate from the
town board, although the town meeting may not direct a town board to change the
number of commissioners more frequently than every two years. If a town board
performs the functions of a town sanitary district commission, the membership of the
commission remains the same as the membership of the town board.
