H.B. No. 2293 amends the Special District Local Laws Code to change the election process for the board of directors of the Sweeny Hospital District. The bill specifies that the board will consist of seven directors who are to be elected at large by place, replacing the previous language that simply stated they would be elected. This change aims to clarify the election process and ensure that each director is associated with a specific place on the board.
Additionally, the bill outlines the procedure for determining the specific places for the current directors at the first meeting following the bill's effective date. Directors whose terms expire in May 2026 will draw lots for Places 1 through 4, while those whose terms expire in May 2027 will draw lots for Places 5 through 7. The act is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
