Taylor's advice was to get an attorney to get the district properly started and petitions, properly -. worded. Twenty - five per cent or 200 signatures1 of land owners would be needed on the peti tions and all the property must be contiguous. After the petitions were received and checked, a hearing by the county court would be needed before the measure would be placed on the ballot. A majori ty of votes would be needed to pass. ' The district would need a secretary - treasurer and board of directors, similar to the school district. Definite hnnnrtnrlna wmilri hA needed if different from the school district.
