. (a) A general regulation of the board shall be entered in its
minutes, and shall be published once in a newspaper published in the
district, if there is one, and if not, then it shall be posted for
one week in three public places in the district.
(b) The publication or posting of general regulations, as required
by subdivision (a), may be satisfied by either of the following
actions:
(1) The board of directors may publish a summary of a proposed
regulation or ordinance or proposed amendment to an existing
regulation or ordinance. This summary shall be prepared by an
official designated by the board. A summary shall be published along
with the names of those board members voting for and against the
regulation or ordinance or amendment, and a certified copy of the
full text of the proposed regulation or ordinance or proposed
amendment to same shall be posted in the office of the clerk of the

or ordinance or amendment to same, and if the board so orders, a
display advertisement of at least one-quarter of a page in a
newspaper published in the district shall be published. The
advertisement shall indicate the general nature of, and provide
information about, the regulation, ordinance, or amendment, including
information sufficient to enable the public to obtain copies of the
complete text of the regulation or ordinance or amendment to same,
and the names of those board members voting for and against the
regulation, ordinance, or amendment.
(c) A subsequent order of the board that publication or posting
has been made is conclusive evidence that the publication or posting
has been properly made.

of publication or posting.
