§ 40501 District Dissolution Election

• •If people want to vote on closing down a special district (like a local government area), they have to wait at least 74 days after asking for the vote.
• •The vote must happen on the next regular election day that is at least 74 days away.
• •This rule was updated in 1973.

A group of people in a small town want to vote on shutting down their local water district because they think it’s not needed anymore.

They can’t vote right away. They have to wait at least 74 days, and the vote must happen on the next normal election day (like a regular Tuesday election day).
