Text

(a) This section applies to each board
established under section 6 of this chapter.
(b) A board shall hold regular meetings at least once a month, at
times and places prescribed by its rules or established by resolution.
(c) A special meeting of a board shall be held when called by its
presiding officer or when called by at least two-fifths (2/5) of its
members, at any place in the county designated in the call.
(d) No notice of a regular meeting, or meeting required by statute,
need be given to a member of a board. For a special meeting, a written
notice specifying the time and place of the meeting must be delivered,
mailed, or sent by telegram to all members so that each member has at
least seventy-two (72) hours notice of the meeting. However, this
requirement is waived as to a member if the member:
(1) attends the meeting; or
(2) executes a written waiver of notice of the time and place of the
meeting.
A written waiver of notice may be executed before or after the meeting,
but it must state in general terms the purpose of the meeting if executed
after the meeting.
(e) A majority of all the members of a board constitutes a quorum.
(f) A majority vote of all the members of a board is required to pass
a resolution.
