Senate Substitute

SS/SB 148 - This act specifies that per diem attendance fees for street light maintenance district board members may be increased to a maximum of $100 by ordinance, or to over $100 when authorized by a vote of the district. (Section 235.120).

In addition, elections for street light maintenance district board members are moved from the November general election to the April general municipal election. The act modifies language to note that the election of new board members shall take place biennially, as is currently provided by law. The act also provides that nominations shall be filed with the election authority, rather than that they may be filed with the secretary of the board. (Section 235.140.1)

The act further provides for the April election of board members for seats to which members were previously elected in November of 2018, 2020, and 2022. (Section 235.140.3)

This act is similar to SB 797 (2022), HB 1839 (2022), SB 279 (2021), HB 208 (2021), HB 1627 (2020), HB 1628 (2020), HB 414 (2019), HB 530 (2019), SB 685 (2018), HB 1978 (2018), SB 134 (2017), SCS/HB 353 (2017), and HB 443 (2017).
