unit. The federal government may be represented by a nonvoting
agent or representative if authorized by federal law.
(b) The airport authority is established when resolutions or
ordinances containing identical agreement provisions are duly
adopted by the legislative bodies of the governmental units to be
combined into the airport authority. If passage is by resolution, it
may be joint or several, but the resolution or ordinance of the
combining governmental units must provide for the number of
members, the residence requirements of the members, the length of

members from each party state are present and a majority of those
from each state concur. An action that does not comply with these
requirements may be ratified within thirty (30) days by the
