The bill amends the Special District Local Laws Code to change the election process for the board of directors of the Sweeny Hospital District. Specifically, it modifies Section 1102.051(a) to state that the board will consist of seven directors who are elected at large by place, replacing the previous language that simply referred to them as "elected" directors without specifying the method of election.

Additionally, the bill outlines the procedure for the first meeting of the board following the bill's effective date, which is set for September 1, 2025. During this meeting, current directors will draw lots to determine their designated places on the board, with specific instructions for the directors whose terms expire in May 2026 and May 2027. This ensures a clear transition to the new election structure while maintaining continuity in board membership.
