§ 713. Publication of results of referendum; determination of feasibility

The Council shall publish the result of such referendum and, if a majority of the votes cast at the referendum is for the establishment of a district, and the Council determines that the operation of such district is administratively practicable and feasible, it shall record in its minutes such determination and shall proceed with the organization of the district. In making such determination, the Council shall give due regard to the attitudes of the owners of lands lying within the defined boundaries, and the proportion of the votes cast in such referendum in favor of the creation of the district, the probable expense of carrying on erosion-control operations within such district, and such other economic and social factors as may be relevant to such determination. (Amended 1959, No. 329 (Adj. Sess.), § 11(c), eff. March 1, 1961.)
