Requires village elections on the same date as general elections take place on even numbered years

This bill (S 6245) requires villages to hold their general elections on the same day as November general elections in even-numbered years, instead of the current March date. It applies to villages that currently schedule elections on November election days or choose to adopt this change through a resolution approved by the board of trustees and, if requested, voters. Villages adopting this change must follow specific procedures for resolution approval and publication, with elections taking effect six months after adoption. The bill does not change election timing for villages not adopting this alignment.
