(1) All territory which may be annexed to a municipality after its inclusion within the boundaries of the district and the entire consolidated territory resulting from a consolidation of a municipality included within the district with a municipality not so included shall, without further action by the municipality or the board of directors of the district, become a part of and included within the boundaries of the district; but if it is infeasible for any part of the annexed or consolidated territory to be served by the district's facilities, the municipality may, prior to or within ninety days after such annexation or consolidation is completed, petition the board of directors of the district for an exclusion of the territory which cannot feasibly be served.

(2) Upon receipt of such a petition, the board of directors shall consider the same, and, if it determines that the territory petitioned to be excluded cannot feasibly be served by the facilities of the district, the board by resolution may exclude the same from the boundaries of the district, and such exclusion shall be retroactive to the date of annexation or consolidation. A certified copy of the resolution excluding the territory shall be forthwith transmitted to the division of local government in the department of local affairs, and three certified copies shall be forthwith transmitted to the clerk of the municipality, and the clerk of the municipality shall cause a certified copy of the resolution to be recorded in the county or counties in which the municipality is located and a copy thereof delivered to the office of the county assessor and county treasurer of each county in which the excluded territory is located. Additional certified copies of such resolution shall be issued by the secretary of the district upon request.
