This bill amends section 37-101 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska, which pertains to the Game and Parks Commission. The key changes include the adjustment of term limits for commission members, specifically stating that no person who has served three full terms shall be eligible for reappointment, replacing the previous limit of two full terms. Additionally, the bill eliminates obsolete provisions regarding the terms of certain members and the start date of their terms, establishing that members appointed for terms expiring on or after January 1, 2012, shall serve four-year terms.
The bill also clarifies the appointment process for commission members, ensuring that successors are appointed from the same district as the outgoing member. It maintains the requirement that members must be legal residents of Nebraska, with specific qualifications related to political party affiliation and engagement in agricultural pursuits. The original section 37-101 is repealed, consolidating the updated provisions into a single, streamlined statute.
