Existing law, the Public Cemetery District Law, contains various provisions relating to the establishment of public cemetery districts, including the formation of a district, the selection of a district governing board, and the powers and duties of the board. Existing law sets the term of office for a member of the board of trustees at 4 years, subject to certain exceptions, and prohibits a board of supervisors from reducing the term of office of a trustee once the trustee has been appointed to that term.
