Summary
Existing law, the Public Cemetery District Law, contains various provisions relating to the establishment of public cemetery districts, including the formation of a district, the selection of a district governing board, and the powers and duties of the board. Existing law sets the term of office for a member of the board of trustees at 4 years, subject to certain exceptions, and prohibits a board of supervisors from reducing the term of office of a trustee once the trustee has been appointed to that term.
This bill would authorize the board of trustees of a public cemetery district in the County of Tulare to adopt a resolution to remove a trustee for specified causes, including substantial neglect of duty, gross misconduct in office, or causing the board to be unable to discharge its duties. Prior to removal, the bill would entitle the trustee to notice and opportunity to respond to the proposed removal, as specified. If a board of trustees of a public cemetery district in the County of Tulare adopts a resolution that orders the removal of a trustee, the bill would require the Tulare County Board of Supervisors to promptly appoint a person to the board of trustees to fulfill the remaining term of office, as specified.
This bill would authorize the Tulare County Board of Supervisors to adopt a resolution to remove a trustee from the board of trustees of a public cemetery district in the County of Tulare for specified causes, including, but not limited to, gross misconduct in office. The bill would require the resolution to be considered at a public hearing, as specified. After receiving and considering comments at the public hearing, the bill would authorize the Tulare County Board of Supervisors to adopt a resolution that orders the removal of the trustee, pursuant to certain requirements. If the Tulare County Board of Supervisors adopts a resolution that orders the removal of the trustee, the bill would require the board of supervisors to promptly appoint a person to the board of trustees to fulfill the remaining term of office, as specified.
