This bill modifies the governance structure of the hospital district in Swift County by changing the number of board members from "at least nine and not more than 12" to "six." Additionally, it allows for the hospital district to change the number of board members through the adoption and amendment of bylaws. The bill also reduces the number of directors to be elected by the county board from "three" to "two" and from "six" to "four," while providing flexibility for nonvoting members as specified in the bylaws. Other amendments include technical changes to the references of sections within the law, specifically updating references from section "5" to "10."

Furthermore, the bill outlines the duties of the board officers and clarifies the approval process for the sale or lease of hospital facilities, requiring a majority vote from the county board and city council. It also establishes provisions for leasing facilities to nonprofit or public corporations, ensuring that the facilities remain accessible to all community residents. The act will take effect the day after the governing bodies of Swift County and the city of Benson fulfill specific statutory requirements.
