§ 6212 District Formation Petition Requirements

This law says that when you ask the government to make a new district, your petition must say the district’s name, describe where its borders are, and ask that the area be officially created as a district.

Key Takeaways

•The petition must include the proposed district’s name.
•It must describe the exact boundaries of the area.
•It must ask (pray) that the area be created as a district.

Example

A neighborhood wants its own school district and files a petition that says, “We propose the ‘Green Valley District,’ which includes the area bounded by Main St., Oak Ave., River Rd., and Hill Blvd., and we ask that this area be made a school district.”

The petition follows the law because it names the district, draws the boundary lines, and asks the state to create the district.
