What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill makes changes to the required membership of the board of

commissioners of public inland lake protection and rehabilitation districts (lake

districts).

Under current law, a county may establish one or more lake districts in the

county. A board of commissioners is established to manage the affairs of a lake

district, which include enacting boating ordinances and receiving state funding for

local water safety patrols. Under current law, the board consists of five members, one

of whom must be a resident of the lake district appointed by the governing body of

the town, village, or city within which the largest portion by valuation of the lake

district lies. Under this bill, the governing body may either appoint a resident of the

lake district or one of the members of the governing body of the town, village, or city

within which the largest portion of the valuation of the lake district lies.
