(7) Should the delinquent member government(s) desire to reinstate voting privileges on the Board of Directors, all delinquent dues and all dues levied by the Authority and duly approved by the member governments during the period of non-participation by the large city or county, shall be paid in full before the delinquent member government is allowed to be reinstated as a voting member of the Board of Directors and all other privileges are reinstated. In lieu of paying the delinquent dues as set forth above, the Board of Directors may waive the payment of delinquent dues, but require instead that the delinquent member government pay the costs of bringing its portion of the Authority’s Master Plan up to date as it relates to the delinquent member’s geographic area and such other expenses necessary for said member to be a functional member of the Authority; provided, however, such expenses shall not exceed what the delinquent member would have otherwise paid in dues should the member have never become delinquent.
