The District Board of Directors are elected by the constituency of the District and shall consist of three (3) members each serving a four (4) year, staggered term.

No person shall be eligible to be a Board Member who is not at the time of election or appointment a resident of the District and a registered voter. 

The Board meets on a regular basis once a month and is presided over by the President of the Board, who leads the meetings and ensures that proper rules of order are followed.  In the President’s absence, the Vice President takes over his or her duties. 

The District complies with Oregon’s Public Meeting and Records Law set out in Oregon Revised Statues 192. 

All Board meetings are required by law to be open to the public and written minutes are kept by the secretary of the Board, which is later approved by the Board. 

The Board’s basic function is policy making.  Duties of the Board of Directors include making decisions based on the wishes and needs of the public it serves, keeping the public informed on all District matters, spending the District’s money with prudence and trust and placing the needs of the public above the ambition of the Board or the district. 

The Board does this by adopting ordinances,  passing resolutions, adopting a balanced budget annually, approving policies of the District, and developing and approving a long-range plan of growth and development for the District.
