Except as otherwise required by law, elected and appointed officials
shall take and file any required official oath within five days after
notice of election or appointment and shall execute and file any official
bond as required by state statutes and this Code (§ 60.31,
Wis. Stats.)
Whenever the Town Chair is absent or because of illness or incapacity is temporarily unable to perform the duties of his office and the Town Board is of the opinion that business requiring action by the Chair need be performed, the remaining members of the Town Board may appoint an Acting Chair. The Acting Chair shall file the necessary oath and bond as required by §
65-3 hereof and shall thereupon be vested with all authority of the office of Town Chair. The Acting Chair shall continue to serve until expiration of the time established by the Town Board or until the Town Board determines that the temporary vacancy has ceased. In the event the Chair is of the opinion that he or she is again available and able to serve, he or she is empowered to call a special Town Board meeting to consider whether the temporary vacancy has ceased. At such time as the appointment of the Acting Chair expires or upon the Town Board's determination that the temporary vacancy has ceased, the authority of the Acting Chair shall cease and the Chair shall be restored to full authority.
At the Annual Town Meeting on April 6, 1958, a motion was adopted
granting the Town village powers.
The Town Treasurer shall have such powers and perform such duties
as prescribed by state law and directed by the Town Board. See § 60.34,
Wis. Stats.
