Neb. Const. art. XV, § 20

Omitted. (Elected Government officials-limitation on terms.)

Adopted in 1994. Omitted because of the decision of the Nebraska Supreme Court in Duggan v. Beermann, 249 Neb. 411, 544 N.W.2d 68 (1996). The omitted language read, "(1) In order to broaden the opportunities for public service and to assure that elected officials of governments are responsive to the citizens of those governments, no elected member of any governing board of any city of the metropolitan class, primary class, or first class, and no elected members of any County Board of Commissioners or Supervisors, shall serve more than two consecutive terms in office, except that with respect to terms of office which are two years or shorter in duration, no such elected official shall serve more than three consecutive terms in office. This limitation on the number of terms shall apply to terms of office beginning on or after January 1, 1995. For purposes of this Section, terms are considered consecutive unless they are at least four years apart. (2) The voters of any city or county referred to above in Article XV, Section 20(1), may lengthen, shorten, or eliminate the limitations on terms of office imposed by this Section 20."
