§ 20720 District Formation Petition Requirements

• •To create a new irrigation district, you need to write a request (petition).
• •The request must describe the land and where the water will come from.
• •You must include a name of someone to send notices to about the meeting.
• •The request must be signed by the people asking for the new district.

A group of farmers want to create a new area where they can all share water for their crops.

They write a request that says which land they want to include, where the water will come from (like a river or a lake), and who should get the letters about the meeting. Then, they all sign it and send it in.
