This bill proposes the creation of new sections in the North Dakota Century Code to establish an exemption for meetings of the board of township supervisors when conducting onsite inspections. Specifically, it designates these onsite inspections as exempt meetings under certain conditions, such as when the township lacks staff capable of performing the inspection or when the board is acting as the township officers and staff.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the board of township supervisors must make good-faith efforts to notify news media that have requested notice of such inspections, provided they include their contact information. This notification can be done via telephone or any other method used to inform the public body members. The intent of the bill is to streamline the process for township supervisors while ensuring some level of public awareness regarding these inspections.
