This bill amends the Code of Iowa to establish specific procedures for the discharge of county and city executives, including county managers and city managers, among others. It stipulates that a board of supervisors or a city council can only terminate these positions through the adoption of a motion or resolution that receives a majority vote from the respective board or council. This requirement applies regardless of the title used for the position, ensuring consistency in the process of termination for these roles.

The bill also includes provisions regarding its effective date and applicability, stating that it will take effect immediately upon enactment. Furthermore, it specifies that the new rules will apply to new employment contracts and the renewal of existing contracts for the specified positions entered into on or after the effective date. This aims to provide clarity and uniformity in the governance of county and city administration.
