North Dakota Century Code Title 11. Counties § 11-11.1-01.1. Joint job development authority--Board of directors

The boards of county commissioners of two or more counties, by resolution, may create a joint job development authority for the counties. If the authority is created, boards of county commissioners 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 boards of county commissioners. If the authority is created, the question of discontinuing the authority may be placed on the ballot at the next regular election by petition signed by electors, who are residents of the area subject to taxation under section 11-11.1-04, of any county creating the authority equal in number to ten percent of the votes cast in that county for the office of governor in the last general election. The question to discontinue the authority requires a majority of the electors voting on the question in that county for passage. Only electors of the county who are residents of the area subject to taxation under section 11-11.1-04 may vote on the question to discontinue the authority. If the question to discontinue in any county creating the authority is passed, the authority is discontinued.
