Relating to the recall of members of school district boards of trustees.
HB 4262 would establish a process for recalling school board trustees in Texas. It allows voters to petition for a recall election if a trustee commits serious misconduct (like misuse of funds), violates their oath, fails to perform duties, or misses three consecutive meetings. To trigger an election, a petition must gather signatures from at least 20% of voters who participated in the last trustee election, with specific formatting and dated signatures. The bill directly affects school board members and voters seeking to remove them, but does not change the grounds for recall beyond what's specified in the bill.
