 34 23    Sec. 63.  Section 34A.3, subsection 1, unnumbered paragraph
 34 24 1, Code 1995, is amended to read as follows:
 34 25    The board of supervisors of each county shall establish a
 34 26 joint 911 service board not later than January 1, 1989.  Each
 34 27 political subdivision of the state having a public safety
 34 28 agency serving territory within the county is entitled to
 34 29 voting membership on the joint 911 service board.  Each
 34 30 private public safety agency operating within the area is
 34 31 entitled to nonvoting voting membership on the board.  A
 34 32 township which does not operate its own public safety agency,
 34 33 but contracts Each private safety agency under contract with a
 34 34 political subdivision within the county for the provision of
 34 35 public safety services, is not entitled to membership on the
 35  1 joint 911 service board, but its contractor is entitled to
 35  2 membership according to the contractor's status as a public or
 35  3 private safety agency is entitled to voting membership on the
 35  4 board.  The board of supervisors of the county establishing
 35  5 the board is also entitled to voting membership on the board.
 35  6 The joint 911 service board shall develop an enhanced 911
 35  7 service plan encompassing at minimum the entire county, unless
 35  8 an exemption is granted by the administrator permitting a
 35  9 smaller E911 service area.  The administrator may grant a
 35 10 discretionary exemption from the single county minimum service
 35 11 area requirement based upon an E911 joint service board's or
 35 12 other E911 service plan operating authority's presentation of
 35 13 evidence which supports the requested exemption if the
 35 14 administrator finds that local conditions make adherence to
 35 15 the minimum standard unreasonable or technically infeasible,
 35 16 and that the purposes of this chapter would be furthered by
 35 17 granting an exemption.  The minimum size requirement is
 35 18 intended to prevent unnecessary duplication of public safety
 35 19 answering points and minimize other administrative, personnel,
 35 20 and equipment expenses.  An E911 service area must encompass a
 35 21 geographically contiguous area.  No exemption shall be granted
 35 22 from the contiguous area requirement.  The administrator may
 35 23 order the inclusion of a specific territory in an adjoining
 35 24 E911 service plan area to avoid the creation by exclusion of a
 35 25 territory smaller than a single county not serviced by
 35 26 surrounding E911 service plan areas upon request of the joint
 35 27 911 service board representing the territory.  The E911
 35 28 service plan operating authority shall submit the plan on or
 35 29 before January 1, 1994, to all of the following:
