    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
 
    Section 5. The Park District Code is amended by changing
Section 4-8 as follows:
 
    (70 ILCS 1205/4-8)  (from Ch. 105, par. 4-8)
    Sec. 4-8. Except where the president of the district is
elected by direct vote of the electors, the board of each park
district shall elect from their number a president and all
districts shall elect a vice-president, who shall hold their
respective offices for one year, or until their successors
shall be elected. The Board shall prescribe their powers and
duties not inconsistent with the provisions of this code.
    The Board shall also appoint a secretary and a treasurer,
prescribe their duties, and term of office and require such
bonds as the board deems necessary. The secretary and treasurer
need not be members of the board, in which case the Board may
fix their compensation; and both offices may be held by the
same person. The secretary shall have power to administer oaths
and affirmations.
    The Board may appoint an assistant secretary and an
assistant treasurer. If the secretary or treasurer are unable
to perform the duties of their respective offices, then the
assistant secretary or assistant treasurer shall perform the
duties of that office, respectively, as prescribed by the
Board. The assistant secretary and assistant treasurer need not
be members of the Board.
