An Act amending Titles 11 (Cities) and 16 (Counties) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, further providing for vacancies in elected offices in cities of the first class, cities of the second class, cities of the second class A and cities of the third class; in county commissioners and chief clerks, further providing for election and vacancies; and making repeals.
HB 1876 amends Pennsylvania statutes (Titles 11 and 16) to update procedures for filling vacancies in elected offices. It directly affects cities of all classes (first, second, second class A, and third) and county commissioners or chief clerks when positions become vacant. The bill revises the specific mechanisms for how these vacancies are filled, including election timing and eligibility rules. This is a procedural update to existing election laws, not a new policy change.
