Bill Title: Amends the Township Code. Provides that if a vacant township supervisor office is filled by appointment, the appointed supervisor shall fulfill the bond requirement for township supervisors. Provides that the appointed supervisor may be a trustee appointed by a majority vote of the trustees and shall have one vote on any matter properly before the board.

Provides that the temporary deputy is not permitted to vote at a township board meeting unless the appointed deputy is a trustee of the board at the time of the vote.
