§ 103160 District Officer Positions

This law says the people who run the district are the board members and a few specific staff, and the board can add more helpers if they want.

Key Takeaways

  • •The board members themselves are considered officers.
  • •Specific roles listed are chairman, secretary, general manager, legal counsel, controller, and treasurer.
  • •The board can add other officers, assistants, or deputies whenever they decide, using an ordinance.

Example

A town's board decides who works in the district office, like naming a secretary and a treasurer, and later adds a new assistant to help with paperwork.

Because the law lets the board pick these officers and add more as needed, the board can choose who does each job and can create new positions whenever they think it's necessary.
