STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE

In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand Three

AN ACT making the position of "treasurer" optional for school districts.

Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:

1 Other Officers; Treasurer. Amend RSA 671:6 to read as follows:

671:6 Other Officers. Except as provided under RSA 671:6-a, at each school district election, each school district which is not a cooperative school district as defined in RSA 195:1 shall elect a school district clerk, moderator, treasurer, and such optional officers as the voters of the district shall have voted to elect to manage the affairs of the district. At any annual school district meeting under an article in the warrant placed there by petition, the voters may vote to eliminate the office of treasurer. If the office of treasurer is eliminated, the school district shall designate an officer to perform the duties of the treasurer established by law. The moderator shall take office upon the adjournment of the regular school district meeting held in the year of the moderator's election and upon the moderator's qualification for office, whichever is later. The treasurer shall take office upon the close of the fiscal year for the district and upon the treasurer's qualification for office, whichever is later. An optional officer may not be elected by official ballot until the annual district election first following the establishment of the office. The school district may, by vote, determine to elect a temporary officer or authorize the school board to appoint a temporary officer to serve until the next annual district election.

2 Effective Date. This act shall take effect 60 days after its passage.
