[Adopted 5-14-1997 by L.L. No. 3-1997 (Ch. 62 of the 1998 Code)]
Pursuant to § 3-302 of the Village Law, the Board
of Trustees, by this article, subject to permissive referendum, hereby
extends to four years the terms of office of Mayor and all Trustees
commencing at the beginning of the official year following the next
general Village election at which such offices are to be filled.
Any Trustee whose term of office presently expires in an even-numbered
year shall, at the general Village election preceding the expiration
of such term of office, be elected for a single three-year term, and
their successors shall thereafter be elected for terms of four years,
and thereafter the elections for Mayor and all Trustees shall be held
biennially in odd-numbered years.
This article shall become effective 30 days after its adoption
unless subject to a permissive referendum; and if such permissive
referendum is required, it shall become effective if approved by the
affirmative vote of a majority of the qualified electors of the Village
of Livonia voting on the proposition for its approval.
