Requires notification to employees of a fire protection district about hires, separations, terminations, and any other changes in employment that are a direct consequence of the proposed annexation or incorporation of such fire protection district. Substitute adds language to the Inter-Local Agreement process to require a response to a request to enter an ILA within 45 days. A party must respond in the affirmative or negative and a negative response must state the reasons the party does not want to enter an ILA process. A failure to respond within the 45 days will be treated as an affirmative response and the ILA process will proceed. The substitute contains additional technical changes.
