The bill amends existing laws regarding special districts in Wyoming, specifically addressing the term of office for members of a special district governing body who fill vacancies. It clarifies that an appointee to the office of director will serve until the expiration of the term they were appointed to fill, rather than until the next regular election. Additionally, the bill stipulates that the term of office for an appointee cannot be extended beyond the original term they were appointed to fill.

The amendments include the insertion of language that emphasizes the specific term of office for appointees and the deletion of the previous provision that allowed appointees to serve until the next regular election. This change aims to provide clearer guidelines for the appointment process within special districts. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2024.
