Amends the Township Code. Provides that a vacancy in office occurs if a township officer or a member of a township board of directors resigns or is convicted of a disqualifying crime. Provides that an admission of guilt of a criminal offense that would, upon conviction, disqualify the officer from holding that office or the director from membership on the board, in the form of a written agreement with State or federal prosecutors to plead guilty to a felony, bribery, perjury, or other infamous crime under State or federal law, shall constitute a resignation from that office or board, effective at the time the plea agreement is made. Specifies that a conviction for an offense that disqualifies an officer from holding that office or a director from membership on the board occurs on the date of the return of a guilty verdict or, in the case of a trial by the court, the entry of a finding of guilt.
