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.

BILLINGS - After a relative obscure existence for more than six decades, the Heights Water District - the small government entity that runs the Heights Water system - finds itself in the headlines.
From a $4 million overdue bill with the city of Billings, to revelations that the Water Board has never held an election, to new accusations that the board s policies and fees are stifling growth in the Heights. The more we ask and the more we talk with developers, investors and realtors, this frustration that the Heights Water District is impeding development in the Heights, said Jennifer Owen, chair of the Heights Task Force.
