§ 18-12-105 — Commencement of districts; districts to provide emergency medical services

(a) Proceedings for the formation of an improvement and
service district under this act, except a district to provide
emergency medical services formed pursuant to subsection (b) of
this section, shall be commenced by filing a petition addressed
to the commissioners of the county in which the land proposed to
be included in the district is situated. The petition shall be
accompanied by a filing fee of two hundred dollars ($200.00).
(b) After July 1, 2023, as an alternative to forming a
district under subsection (a) of this section, a district to
provide emergency medical services under W.S. 18-12-112(a)(xxii)
may be established by resolution of the board of county
commissioners. A resolution under this subsection shall
establish one (1) or more districts to provide emergency medical
services composed of any portion of the county. Areas may be
added to or subtracted from an existing district by resolution
of the board of county commissioners. Not less than sixty (60)
days before any resolution pursuant to this subsection is
signed, the board of county commissioners shall hold a public
hearing and publish the proposed resolution, including the date
and time of the public hearing, in a newspaper of general
circulation in the county and on the county's website. The board
of county commissioners shall submit the proposed boundaries of
the district to the county assessor and the department of
revenue for review for any conflict, overlap, gap or other
boundary issue. The assessor and the department may make written
comments thereon to the county commissioners before the public
hearing. The board of county commissioners may dissolve a
district established under this subsection in accordance with
W.S. 18-3-525.
