This bill modifies the governance structure of the hospital district in Swift County by changing the required number of board members from "at least nine and not more than 12" to "six." Additionally, it allows for the number of board members to be adjusted 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 sections regarding the election process, terms of office, and compensation for board members.

Furthermore, the bill updates references to the relevant sections of law, changing them from "section 5" to "section 10" in multiple instances. It clarifies the approval process for the sale or lease of hospital facilities, ensuring that such actions require a majority vote from the county board and city council. The bill also establishes that the hospital district may lease facilities to nonprofit or public corporations, with specific terms regarding the lease duration and conditions for renewal or purchase. The act will take effect once the governing bodies of Swift County and the city of Benson fulfill the necessary requirements outlined in Minnesota Statutes.
