| Summary: | 490 NORTH DAKOTA CENTENNIAL BLUE BOOK TOWNSHIPS Townships are either organized or unorganized. They are created, consolidated, divided, or dissolved under the provisions of Chaper 58- 02 NDCC. Unorganized townships are under the jurisdiction of the board of county commissioners. State law requires that organized civil townships have the following officers: three supervisors; a township clerk; an assessor; a treasurer, and two constables. The office of township assessor may be abolished by a majority vote of the township electors. Townships are governed by a board of township supervisors who serve three- year terms. Other officers serve two- year terms. The offices of clerk and treasurer may be merged with the approval of a majority of the township electors. Annual meetings must be held to organize townships on the third Tuesday in March. Special meetings may be called whenever the supervisors or the township clerk, or any two of them, together with at least 12 freeholders of the township, file with the township clerk a written statement that a special meeting is required by any privision of state law.
