To revise certain village election dates allowed or required in the transition to the new election consolidation law created by House Bills 4820 to 4828 and Senate Bill 877. The bill does not change the system created by that law of all elections in the state taking place on one of four days throughout the year, but does give villages more flexibility in selecting among the four dates. This is part of a legislative package making technical changes to the new system, which begins Jan. 1, 2005.
