This bill provides that the commissioners of all metropolitan sewerage districts
that do not include territory within a first class city shall be elected at large on a
nonpartisan ballot at the spring election. Under the bill, the terms of service, method
for filling vacancies, nomination paper signature requirements, and contribution
limits for the office of commissioner in such districts are the same as currently
provided for elective commissioners of the districts. Candidates for the office of
commissioner are not eligible to receive public grants to finance their campaigns.
Town sanitary district commissions
Currently, one or more towns may organize a town sanitary district. The
boundaries of the district need not be coterminous with any town. Each district is
governed by a town sanitary district commission consisting of three members who
serve at large for six-year terms, except that if a district is contained entirely within
one town, the town board may constitute itself as the commission. Alternatively, the
town board may provide for the appointment of commissioners, or may provide for
the election of commissioners on a nonpartisan ballot at the spring election. If a
district is contained within more than one town, the town board of the town
containing the largest portion of the equalized full value of taxable property in the
district may provide for the appointment or election of commissioners. Upon petition
of a number of electors of the town equaling at least 20 percent of the vote cast for
governor in the district at the last election, the district must change the method of
selection of commissioners from appointment to election, and if a petition is approved
by the electors of the district in a referendum, must change the method of selection
of commissioners from election to appointment.
This bill provides for the election of each town sanitary district commission by
the electors of the district at large on a nonpartisan ballot at the spring election.
Under the bill, commissioners continue to serve for staggered six-year terms. The
bill provides that the method of filling vacancies, nomination paper signature
requirements, and contribution limits for the office of commissioner are the same as
currently provided for elected commissioners of town sanitary districts. Under the
bill, candidates for the office of commissioner are not eligible to receive public grants
to finance their campaigns.
Technical college district boards
Currently, the state technical college system is managed on the local level by
district boards consisting of nine members in each of the state's 16 technical college
districts. The members of the technical college district board for each district are
appointed by an appointment committee consisting of local elected officials in
accordance with a representation plan based upon population distribution within
the district, including distribution of women and minorities. All members of district
boards must be residents of the district. Two members must be employers and two
members must be employees. One member must be a school district administrator
of a school district that lies within the technical college district. All members serve
for three-year terms.
This bill provides for the election of all members of district boards from election
districts within each technical college district on a nonpartisan ballot at the spring
election. Each member must be an elector of the election district from which he or
she is elected. Terms are changed to four years. Board members may be removed
from office by a circuit court for cause and are subject to recall in the same manner
as is currently provided for municipal elective officers. Vacancies are filled by
appointment of the remaining members of the board until a successor can be chosen
at the spring election. Under the bill, current district board members serve until July
1, 2009, at which time district board members who are elected at the 2009 spring
election take office. The terms of the members are staggered so that at least two are
elected every year. Nomination paper signature requirements, contribution limits,
and spending guidelines are the same as currently provided for the office of
representative to the assembly. Candidates for the district board are not eligible to
receive public grants to finance their campaigns.
Local exposition district boards of directors
Currently, any municipality or combination of two or more municipalities may
create an exposition district, the territory of which is coterminous with the territory
of the sponsoring municipality or municipalities, except that if the sponsoring
municipality is a first class city, the territory of the district is coterminous with that
municipality and each city or village that is wholly or partly contained within the
most populous county in which the city is located. The district is governed by a board
of directors whose members are appointed by the chief executive officer or officers of
the sponsoring municipality or municipality, subject to confirmation by the
municipal governing body or bodies. The number of members of a board of directors
varies depending upon which municipality sponsors the district and whether there
is more than one such municipality. Board members must be qualified to serve in
accordance with certain statutory membership categories. Board members serve for
staggered three-year terms.
This bill provides for the election of all members of local exposition district
boards for staggered three-year terms at large by the electors of the district on a
nonpartisan ballot at the spring election. Under the bill, all board members must
be residents of the district. The bill permits the current appointing authorities or
authorities to appoint initial board members in a newly created district and to fill
vacancies by appointment. Nomination paper signature requirements and
contribution limits are the same as currently established for local offices in special
purpose districts. Under the bill, candidates for the office of board member are not
eligible to receive public grants to finance their campaigns.
Local professional baseball park district boards
Currently, there is created a professional baseball park district in each county
with a population of 600,000 or more and all counties that are contiguous to that
county that are not included within another such district. The district is governed
by a district board whose members are appointed, in numbers specified in the
statutes, by the governor, subject to confirmation by the senate, by the chief executive
officers of the counties within the district, and by the mayor or common council
president of the most populous city within the district. Currently, there exists one
professional baseball park district in this state which has a district board consisting
of 13 members.
This bill creates a special committee for each local professional baseball park
district that is in existence on the day the bill becomes law. The committee consists
of the county executive (or the county board chairperson if there is no executive) of
each county that has territory within the district. The committee is directed to report
to the 2009 legislature when it convenes concerning the committee's
recommendation for a process for popular election of the members of the district
board of the district.
Local professional football stadium district boards
Currently, there is created a professional football stadium district in each
county with a population of more than 150,000 in which is located the principal site
of a stadium that is home to a professional football team that meets certain specified
statutory criteria. The district is governed by a district board whose members are
appointed, in numbers specified in the statutes, by the mayor of the most populous
city that is located wholly or partly within the district, the chief elected official of each
other municipality that is located wholly or partly within the district, and the county
executive or board chairperson of the county in which the football stadium is located.
Currently, there exists one professional football stadium district in this state which
has a district board consisting of eight members.
Local cultural arts district boards
Currently, any city with a population of more than 150,000 may create a
cultural arts district, the boundaries of which are coterminous with the boundaries
of the city. The district is governed by a district board. If the sponsoring city is a first
class city, the common council determines the membership and method of selection
of the district board members. If the sponsoring city is not a first class city, the
governor, mayor of the sponsoring city, and county executive or their designees serve
as members of the district board, and the governor may appoint three additional
members, the mayor may appoint six additional members, and the county executive
may appoint one additional member.
This bill provides for the election of all members of each cultural arts district
board for staggered four-year terms at large by the electors of the district on a
nonpartisan ballot at the spring election. Under the bill, all district board members
must have resided within 25 miles of the sponsoring city's city hall for at least one
year prior to assuming office. The bill permits a committee consisting of the governor,
the mayor of the sponsoring city, and the county executive or board chairperson of
the county in which the largest portion of the population of the sponsoring city is
located to appoint initial district board members in a newly created district and to
fill vacancies by appointment. Nomination paper signature requirements and
contribution limits are the same as currently established for local offices in special
purpose districts. Under the bill, candidates for the office of district board member
are not eligible to receive public grants to finance their campaigns.
