Chapter 198 - Special Districts Generally
Section 198.910 - Joint meeting of governing bodies of merged or consolidated districts and cities; election of board members for surviving or successor district; terms.

(2) At the joint meeting, a majority of the members of the governing body of each affected entity constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The members so assembled shall from among the members elect a number of persons consistent with the principal Act to serve as board members of the surviving or successor district. The board so elected shall immediately meet and organize as provided by the principal Act and shall by resolution declare the districts merged or consolidated and each affected city joined, as the case may be. From the date of adoption of the resolution the merger or consolidation is complete, and the city territory, together with any territory thereafter annexed to the city, is included in the boundaries of the surviving or successor district and shall be subject to all the liabilities of the district in the same manner and to the same extent as other territory included in the district.
(3) Of the persons elected under subsection (2) of this section to serve as board members of the surviving or successor district, three shall serve until June 30 following the next regular district election as defined in ORS 255.005 and the remaining members shall serve until June 30 next following the second regular district election. However, if the principal Act provides for a board of directors of three members for the surviving or successor district, then two members shall serve until June 30 following the next regular district election as defined in ORS 255.005 and the remaining member shall serve until June 30 next following the second regular district election. The terms of office of the members shall be determined by lot. [1971 c.727 §47; 1983 c.142 §12; 1989 c.503 §1; 1993 c.424 §4]
