        303.41  ELIGIBILITY AND PURPOSE.
         A land use district shall not be created under this subchapter
      unless it is an area of contiguous territory encompassing twenty
      thousand acres or more of predominately rural and agricultural land
      owned by a single entity which has within its general boundaries at
      least seven platted villages which are not incorporated as
      municipalities at the time the district is organized.  The eligible
      electors may create a land use district to conserve the distinctive
      historical and cultural character and peculiar suitability of the
      area for particular uses with a view to conserving the value of all
      existing and proposed structures and land and to preserve the quality
      of life of those citizens residing within the boundaries of the
      contiguous area by preserving its historical and cultural quality.
