(1)
The boundaries of any district organized under the provisions of this part 6 may be
changed in the manner prescribed in this section, but the change of boundaries of
the district shall not impair or affect its organization or its rights in or to property or
any of its rights or privileges whatsoever nor shall it affect or impair or discharge
any contract, obligation, lien, or charge for or upon which the district might be liable
or chargeable had any such change of boundaries not been made. The owners of
property proposed to be included or excluded may file with the board a petition, in
writing, requesting that such property be included in or excluded from the district.
The petition shall describe the property owned by the petitioners and shall be
verified. The petition shall be accompanied by a deposit of moneys sufficient to pay
all costs of the inclusion or exclusion proceedings. The secretary of the board shall
cause notice of filing of such petition to be given and published, which notice shall
state the filing of such petition, names of petitioners, descriptions of property
sought to be included or excluded, and the request of said petitioners.

(2) Such notice shall notify all persons having objections to appear at the
office of the board at the time stated in said notice and show cause why the petition
should not be granted. The board, at the time and place mentioned or at such times
to which the hearing may be adjourned, shall proceed to hear the petition and all
objections thereto which may be presented by any person showing cause why said
petition should not be granted. The failure of any person interested to show cause
shall be deemed as an assent on his part to the inclusion or exclusion of such
property as requested for in the petition. If the petition is granted, the board shall
adopt an ordinance to that effect and file a certified copy of the same with the
county clerk and recorder of the county in which the property is located. Thereupon
said property shall be included or excluded from the district.
