Amends the Township Code. Provides that if the township board determines that the township clerk has not fulfilled the duties of the office of the township clerk, the township board may, by resolution, provide that the office of the township clerk shall no longer be an elected position, but shall be appointed by the township board. After adoption of a resolution to appoint the township clerk, the elected township clerk's term ends on the appointment of a new township clerk or at the end of the elected township clerk's term, whichever is earlier. Provides for petition and referendum requirements to reinstate an elected township treasurer position.
