46A-10A-50. Order establishing area subject to voters' approval--Notice of election--Exemption from election requirement. If the board or commission is satisfied that the requirements of this chapter have been fully met, it shall make an order declaring that such area, with the assent of the landowners thereof, shall be a coordinated drainage area as specified in the application. It shall also include in such order a notice for an election of the landowners residing in the proposed area, at polling places designated by the board, on a day within one month, to determine whether the area shall become a coordinated drainage area. However, if the landowners signing the petition represent a majority of the resident landowners in the area, no election need be held.
