The bill amends section 9-237 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which pertains to the governance structure of towns. The current law specifies that, in addition to the common council, towns must have a town clerk, town marshal, and town engineer, along with any other officers deemed necessary by the common council, who are appointed according to town ordinance.

The new bill language maintains the requirement for a town clerk, town marshal, and town engineer but removes the explicit mention of these positions as mandatory officers. Instead, it allows for the possibility of other officers to be appointed as deemed necessary by the common council without specifying the inclusion of the town engineer as a required position. This change provides towns with greater flexibility in determining their governance structure.
