Text

If at the election a majority of all the votes cast are against the change of boundaries, the board of directors shall order that the petition be denied and may proceed no further in the matter. However, if a majority of the votes are in favor of the change, or if no election is held due to a lack of sufficient written protests as provided in § 46A-4-60 , the board shall order the boundaries of the district to be changed in accordance with the resolutions adopted by the board. The order shall describe the entire boundaries of the district, and for that purpose the board may cause a survey of such portions of the district to be made as the board may deem necessary.
