§ 17-1330a — Withdrawal of cemetery; petition

Whenever any such cemetery district has been formed including more than one cemetery, and there is no outstanding indebtedness against such district, then any one of such cemeteries may be withdrawn from such district by presenting to the board of county commissioners of the county in which the greater portion of such district lies, a petition signed by not less than 51% of the qualified electors of the cemetery district proposed to be withdrawn, to be determined by an enumeration taken for this purpose and verified by some qualified elector of such district. It shall be the duty of the board of county commissioners at their next regular meeting to enter an order removing such cemetery with the territory included in such petition from such cemetery district, and when so removed such cemetery and territory so removed, shall not be taxed in the district from which it was removed and shall be restored to all rights and privileges the same as if it had never been included within any such district.
