There is still some confusion about who is on the Billings Heights water district board.
Five trustees - three who were recently elected and two appointees- say they re on the board. But the three who lost the election this spring say they re in until May 31.
Five board members had enough for a quorum and held a meeting on Wednesday night after a sign on the door stated it was temporarily postponed.
They asked why on Thursday and found out the postponement had to do with a temporary restraining order, granted by a Yellowstone County district court judge, that stated the district could not prevent the three elected and two appointed trustees from being on the board.

Yellowstone County District Court Judge Michael Moses stopped the Billings Heights water district Wednesday afternoon from preventing city and county appointees, along with newly elected and sworn-in board members, from taking their seats.
Those five board members then met Wednesday night after the scheduled meeting was canceled.
