§ 18443 Library Trustee Vacancy Appointments

Key Takeaways

  • •If a library trustee leaves before their time is up, the board picks someone new to finish their term.
  • •The new person is chosen by the board, not by a vote from the public.
  • •The new trustee only stays until the original term ends, not a full new term.

Example

A library trustee moves away halfway through their 4-year term.

The board will pick a new person to be a trustee for the remaining 2 years. They don’t get to stay for a full 4 years.
