      commission consisting of not less than five and not more than eleven
      members, in the manner and with the qualifications provided in this
      chapter, which shall have charge and supervision of the erection of
      the building or monument, and when erected, the management and

         5.  The commissioners having the management and control of a
      memorial hospital shall, within ten days after their appointment,
      qualify by taking the usual oath of office, but no bonds shall be

      chairperson, secretary, and treasurer.  The secretary shall
      immediately report to the county auditor and county treasurer the
      names of the chairperson, secretary, and treasurer of the commission.
      The commission shall meet as necessary to adequately oversee the
      operation of the hospital.  A majority of the commission members
      shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.  The
      secretary shall keep a complete record of its proceedings.  The
      commissioners of a memorial hospital shall have all of the powers and
      duties necessary to manage, control, and govern the memorial hospital
      including but not limited to any applicable powers and duties granted
      boards of trustees under other provisions of the Code relating to
      hospitals, nursing homes, assisted or independent living services,
      and other ancillary services irrespective of the chapter of the Code
      under which such institutions are established, organized, operated,
      or maintained, unless such provisions conflict with this chapter.
         6.  Memorial hospital funds shall be received, disbursed, and
      accounted for in the same manner and by the same procedure as
      provided by section 347.12.
