How to ask for a new soil and water conservation district

The petition must name the district and describe the area. The department can combine petitions and set the district's boundaries.

The statute, as written — Creation of soil and water conservation districts; petition
Occupiers of land representing a total of twenty-five or more votes lying within an area proposed to be organized into a district may file a petition with the department of land and natural resources asking that the district be organized. The department shall prescribe the form of the petitions, which shall state: (1) The proposed name of the district, and (2) A general description of the area proposed to be organized as a district. Where more than one petition is filed covering parts of the same territory, the department may consolidate the petitions. The area of a district need not be contiguous but shall not include any of the area of any other district.
