ND HB1104

Renames "job development authorities" to "economic development authorities" throughout North Dakota Century Code, including both single-county and joint multi-county authorities

Updates gender-neutral terminology by changing "chairman" to "chairperson" and "vice chairman" to "vice chairperson" for board officer positions

Clarifies that authorities shall encourage development of "employment and businesses" rather than just "employment," explicitly adding business development to the statutory mission

Makes minor technical corrections including changing "member from" to "member of" a local industrial development organization in board composition requirements

Amends nine sections of North Dakota Century Code across multiple chapters governing county government, city powers, and property tax levies to implement the name change consistently
