The petition shall set forth and particularly describe the proposed boundaries of such district and shall be accompanied by a map of such proposed district, drawn to a scale of not less than one (1) inch to the mile. The petitioners shall accompany such petition with a good and sufficient bond, the amount and sureties of which shall be approved by the board of county commissioners, the sum of which is sufficient to cover the costs of the publications and of the election for the organization of the district will be paid in the event that such organization shall not be authorized or effected.
Such petition shall be filed with the county clerk of such county who shall present it to the board of county commissioners at their next regular or special meeting. Upon the presentation of such petition, the board of county commissioners shall set the same for hearing at a time not less than twenty (20) days nor more than forty (40) days from the date of presentation and shall direct the county clerk to give notice of such hearing by publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the county in which such proposed district is located. Such notice shall be published for two (2) consecutive weeks next preceding the date of such hearing. Such notice shall describe the boundaries of the proposed district, shall state the time and place of the hearing, and shall state that any person may appear and protest the organization of the district or the proposed boundaries thereof.
The board of county commissioners shall hold the hearing described in said notice, and it shall have jurisdiction to hear and determine all protests to the creation of such district and all matters pertaining to the same. It may amend the plan of such district by excluding from within its boundaries any lands which it may deem will not be benefited by the formation of such district, or by including other lands as a part thereof upon application of the owners of such land; provided, however, it shall not exclude from such district any lands which are completely surrounded by lands which are included in the proposed district.
At the conclusion of such hearing, the board of county commissioners shall make an order determining the boundaries of the proposed district, particularly describing them, and shall determine whether the formation of such district will be conducive to the public safety of the area incorporated therein. If said board determines that such district will be conducive to the public safety of the area incorporated therein, then said board shall give such proposed district a name and shall call an election of the qualified electors in the territory comprising such proposed district on the question of whether said district shall be organized.
