  • (a) 
    Except in the case of membership termination the Authority shall operate with 100 voting units, which shall be assigned to member municipalities in proportion to each municipality's share of the total population of all members of the Authority, as determined by the latest decennial federal census of population. There shall be no fractional votes, and each municipality shall have a minimum of one vote. The distribution of voting units among members shall be recomputed following each decennial federal census and upon the withdrawal or termination of any member or municipality. All actions by the authority shall require the affirmative vote of at least 51% of the total voting units present and voting at a duly called meeting of the Authority at which a quorum is present.
    (b) 
    Members of the Authority holding a majority of the voting units shall constitute a quorum, provided that no quorum shall be deemed to exist unless at least 51% of the total number of members of the Authority shall be present and voting. In case of membership termination, each member municipality shall have one vote, and there shall be no vote by voting units.
