Bill overview
This bill allows full-time college students who are U.S. citizens to serve on county district boards, even if they don't live in the county or state. Currently, district board members must be registered voters in the county or be a high school graduate or have a GED. This legislation removes the residency requirement for students enrolled in higher education within the county, expanding the pool of potential board members. It also clarifies the application process for students under 18, requiring parental permission and school documentation.
