N.D. Cent. Code § 40-53.1-04: Dissolution - Vote required - Effect on debts and contracts

If a majority of the votes cast on the question are in favor of dissolution, the county commissioners shall, by motion and proclamation, set a date upon which dissolution will become effective and the city shall be dissolved, provided provision has been made for payment of its current indebtedness, contracts, and obligations, and for levying the requisite tax to do so. The current indebtedness, contracts, and obligations do not include funded or bonded indebtedness nor any contract whose termination date is more than one year beyond the date the election was held.
