40-05.1-11. Effect of amendment or repeal on salary or term of office
Repeal of a home rule charter shall cause the city affected by such repeal to revert to the
form of government of such city immediately preceding adoption of the home rule charter and
when positions to which officials were elected under the home rule charter are substantially the
same as positions under the form of government to which the city reverts upon repeal, such
elected officials shall continue to exercise the authority of such position for the salary prescribed
by the home rule charter until expiration of their terms of office as prescribed by the home rule
charter. No amendment of a home rule charter shall shorten the term for which any official was
