Board counsel presented a revised bylaws draft and explained the principal remaining issue was voting. Counsel said the compromise in the draft is one director, one vote for regular matters and a supermajority list for major items. The supermajority is defined as two‑thirds of all directors (not just present members) plus an affirmative vote from the director representing Grand Forks and the director representing Fargo for specified items A through I.

Board members discussed listing additional counties in section 4 and confirmed that Moorhead would retain its directorship as reflected statutorily. One board member said the one‑vote approach eases tallying and avoids repeated weighted calculations; others noted the supermajority with Fargo/Grand Forks affirmation functions as an additional safeguard for large users.

The Board voted to move the revisions forward (first reading to follow after required notice periods); by roll call the motion carried. Counsel said the bylaws require 30 days prior to first reading for secretary submission and 15 days prior to distribute to members; staff will meet those requirements before the first reading.
