Task Ten: Creating the District

At the end of the Planning Phase, it will be necessary to go through the legal steps required to create or expand the district. In most cases, this must be done by an election. In cases where a small untaxed area is going to be annexed to an existing district, a petition method may be used. In the case where two adjoining districts are going to be consolidated, it can be done through the action of the two boards. All these methods require some technical steps to be taken. We will, therefore, dedicate the next chapter to them.
