§ 511.181.
If the board of park commissioners of a township park district created before 1955
is appointed by the board of township trustees, the board of township trustees may
adopt a resolution to convert the parks owned and operated by the park district into
parks owned and operated by the township if the township has a population of less
than thirty-five thousand and a geographical area of less than fifteen square miles. Upon the adoption of that resolution, the township park district shall cease to
exist, all real and personal property owned by the park district shall be transferred
to the township, and the township shall assume liability with respect to all contracts
and debts of the park district. All employees of the township park district whose parks are so converted into township
parks shall become township employees, and the board of township trustees may retain
the former park commissioners, on the terms that the trustees consider appropriate,
to operate the property formerly owned by the township park district. The township shall continue to collect any taxes levied within the former township
park district, and the taxes shall be deposited into the township treasury as funds
to be used for the park purposes for which they were levied. Within fifteen days after the adoption of a township park district conversion resolution
under this section, the clerk of the board of township trustees shall certify a copy
of that resolution to the county auditor.
