1. The board in any county whose population is less than 700,000 may submit to the voters of that county the question of whether a taxing district to establish a system to provide a telephone number to be used in an emergency should be created within the county. If the question is approved, the board, by ordinance, must create such a district.
2. The boundary of a district created pursuant to subsection 1:
(a) Must be defined in the ordinance;
(b) May not include any part of an incorporated city unless the governing body of the city petitions the board for inclusion in the district; and
(c) May include only the area served by the system.
3. The board may delegate the operation of the system to a metropolitan police department, if one has been established in the county.
