Section 73-17-1 - Lands in more than one districtA. The same land may be included in more than one district and be subject to the provisions of this act for each and every district in which it may be included, provided that no district shall be organized in whole or in part within the territory of a district already organized, until the court having jurisdiction of the original district shall determine, upon application, whether the purposes of this act will best be accomplished by the organization of an additional district, or whether the conditions demand that the territory proposed to be organized into an additional district shall be organized as part of the existing district. Such application shall fulfill all the requirements of a petition for a district as set forth in Section 202 [73-14-5 NMSA 1978]. B. Upon such application being made, if the court shall determine that the organization of such territory as a part of the original district should not be ordered, then proceedings may be had before any court of competent jurisdiction for the formation of an additional district. C. Any person whose signature has been subscribed to said application may within ten (10) days after such decision withdraw his signature therefrom, and if at the expiration of said period there remain sufficient subscribers to said petition to satisfy the requirements of Section 202, and in case the court shall determine that the territory described in such application, if organized for the purpose of a district, should be included within the original district, like proceedings shall thereupon be had with respect to the territory and the owners thereof as in the case of a petition for the formation of a district. Upon the hearing so had, if it shall appear that the purpose of this act would be subserved by the organization of such territory as part of the original district, the court shall enter an order accordingly.
