Section 37-45-120 - Subdistricts(1) Subdistricts may be organized upon the petition of the owners of real property, within or partly within and partly without the district, which petition shall fulfill the same requirements concerning the subdistricts as the petition outlined in section 37-45-109 is required to fulfill, concerning the organization of the main district, and shall be filed with the clerk of the court, and shall be accompanied by a bond as provided for in section 37-45-110. All proceedings relating to the organization of such subdistricts shall conform in all things to the provision of this article relating to the organization of districts; except that not more than a majority of the owners of lands, having one-half or more of the aggregate valuation for assessment of the lands in the proposed subdistrict, shall be required to sign the petition for the creation of a subdistrict and not more than twenty-five percent of the owners of lands in the proposed subdistrict shall be required to sign the protesting petition against the creation of such subdistrict.(2) Whenever the court declares and decrees by its order duly entered of record such subdistricts to be organized, the clerk of said court shall thereupon give notice of such order to the directors of the district who shall thereupon act also as directors of the subdistrict. Thereafter, the proceedings in reference to the subdistrict in all matters shall conform to the provisions of this article; except that, in the appraisal of benefits for the purpose of such subdistricts, in the issuance of bonds, in levying of assessments, and in all other matters affecting only the subdistrict, the provisions of this article shall apply to the subdistrict as though it were an independent district, and it shall not in these things be amalgamated with the main district.(3) The petition for organization of a subdistrict shall also contain a statement of the amount or quantity of water for which said subdistrict desires to acquire the perpetual use and the amount of money that said subdistrict is willing to pay therefor, and, prior to the entry of its decree organizing any territory into a subdistrict, the court shall obtain the verified consent of the board to furnish such perpetual use of water for the purposes therein specified to such subdistrict at a price and upon the terms mentioned in the petition. The court shall then be authorized to enter its decree of organization of such subdistrict.L. 37: p. 1331, § 14. CSA: C. 173B, § 28. CRS 53: § 149-6-15. C.R.S. 1963: § 150-5-15.
