North Dakota § 40-57.4-06

• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 40: Municipal Government
• Ch. 40-57.4: City Job Development Authorities

Text

The governing bodies of a city and one or more other political subdivisions, by resolution,
may create a joint job development authority. If the authority is created, the governing bodies of
the political subdivisions shall appoint a board of directors in the size and manner established in
the resolution. The resolution must include provision for discontinuing the authority by the
governing bodies. If the authority is created, the question of discontinuing the authority may be
placed on the ballot at the next regular election by a petition signed by qualified electors of a
political subdivision within the authority equal in number to ten percent of the votes cast in that
political subdivision for the office of governor at the last general election. The question to
discontinue the authority requires a majority of the electors voting on the question in that
political subdivision for passage. If a majority of the electors voting on the question vote to
discontinue the authority in a political subdivision creating the authority, the authority is
discontinued. A joint job development authority in which a city is participating may exercise any
of the functions and powers of a city job development authority under this chapter.
