If most voters approve forming a district during an election, the candidates for director with the most votes in their divisions will be elected as directors of the district.

This law section explains that a district board, organized under this act, will have five members. Each member, known as a director, must live in one of the five divisions of the district. Voters in each division elect their director. The divisions are identified as first through fifth and must be set up according to Section 60110.

This law states that the board of directors must pass a resolution to change the boundaries of divisions, following the procedures outlined in the Elections Code, starting at Section 22000.

The initial board members are elected according to the rules in a specific part of the act. Future board members will be elected or chosen as set out in later sections.

This law describes how directors are to serve four-year terms. For the first board of directors, members will draw lots to determine which two members will serve until their successors are elected in the next even-numbered year. The remaining three will serve until their successors are chosen in the following even-numbered year. This ensures staggered elections and continuity on the board.

This law specifies that, for all districts except when choosing the initial board, director elections must occur during the general election and be combined with it.

In an election for directors, the candidate who receives the most votes compared to others running for the same position will be elected to that office.

This law states that the process for running for election and counting votes in this context should follow the same steps as elections for county officers. These steps include how candidates declare they are running, how they are nominated, how votes are counted, and how the results are certified. However, this should happen according to the specific rules in this particular act, unless stated otherwise.

The directors who are elected, except for the first board, will start their job at the same time as county officers, as specified in the Government Code.

This law states that when directors are elected during the general election, it is called the general water replenishment district election. Any other elections that happen under this division, the Elections Code, or other relevant laws are referred to as special water replenishment district elections.

This law states that if only one person is nominated for each board position in a district general election, no election will take place. Instead, the district board must officially decide not to hold an election and ask the county's board of supervisors to appoint the nominated individuals. The appointees will serve just like they were elected in a regular election. Instead of announcing an election, the district will publish a notice that says no election will occur and the appointments will be made.

This law says if there's only one nomination for a position in a district, a public notice about this appointment must be published in a local newspaper. The notice should appear at least seven days and no more than 14 days before nominations close.

This law states that each board director can be paid up to $100 for attending meetings or serving as a director if requested, with a limit of six compensated days per month. Directors can also be reimbursed for any work-related expenses incurred. The criteria for determining if a director's activities are eligible for payment and reimbursement are further detailed in the Government Code under specific sections.

If there's an empty seat on the board, it must be filled according to rules in Section 1780 of the Government Code. The new board member must live in the division and meet all other requirements needed for the role.
