Crane Lake Water and Sanitary District permitted to have a three-member board of managers.

HF 438 allows the Crane Lake Water and Sanitary District in Minnesota to reduce its board of managers from five to three members, subject to approval by the district's governing body. The bill specifies that vacancies won't be filled until the board reaches three members, after which vacancies will follow standard procedures to maintain the three-member structure. It also requires the governing body to assign newly elected members to staggered terms to avoid multiple terms expiring in the same year. This change takes effect after the district complies with state requirements for board elections.
