Summary

County manager plan of government; county board; powers. Broadens several powers related to the county board size and manner of election for counties that have adopted the county manager plan of government by giving such counties the option of following general law, after voter approval by referendum, rather than the provisions specified in this optional form of county government. Currently, only Arlington County has adopted the county manager plan of government. The provisions of the bill do not become effective unless reenacted by the 2026 Session of the General Assembly.
