Tri-City Fire District Governing Board Membership Changes

Background Information

ARS 48-803 (B), if a vacancy occurs on the district board other than from expiration of a term, the remaining board members shall fill the vacancy by appointment of an interim member. If the entire board resigns or for any reason cannot fulfill its duties, the Board of Supervisors shall appoint an administrator to administer the district with the same duties and obligations of the elected board. If the Board of Supervisors fails to appoint an administrator within thirty days, a special election shall be held to fill the vacancies on the fire district board.

Evaluation

Tri-City Fire District board member Joe Stapleton tendered his resignation effective March 12, 2013. The Tri-City Fire District governing board appointed John H. Chism to replace Joe Stapleton and complete his term ending December 31, 2014.

Conclusion

John H. Chism has agreed to complete the term of resigned board member Joe Stapleton which expires December 31, 2014.

Recommendation

The Elections Department recommends that the Board of Supervisors acknowledge the resignation of Joe Stapleton and the appointment of John H. Chism as a newly appointed governing board member of the Tri-City Fire District.

Suggested Motion

Acknowledgment of the resignation of Joe Stapleton from the Tri-City Fire District and the appointment of John H. Chism to fulfill Mr. Stapleton's unexpired term of office ending on December 31, 2014.
