9-2-7. Determination of number of inhabitants in wards.

For the purpose of dividing a municipality into wards, the number of inhabitants shall be determined by subdivision 2-14-2(20). However, the governing body may, by resolution, authorize its auditor, clerk, or finance officer to determine the number of inhabitants by filing in his office a certificate showing the whole number of persons registered to vote in each ward of the municipality. That number multiplied by two shall constitute the number of inhabitants until the next federal census is completed.
