    42-3124.  DECISION BY DIRECTOR -- COURT CONFIRMATION OF CONSOLIDATION
REQUIRED. The director shall recommend for or against the consolidation,
basing his decision on his findings of facts and stating his reasons. If the
director shall recommend that the districts be not consolidated, nothing
further shall be done, unless a new petition shall be filed in the manner
herein provided. If the director shall recommend that the districts be
consolidated, he may make and enter an order consolidating the districts and
record said order in the office of the county recorder of each county wherein
the lands in said consolidated district are located. The order shall also
divide the consolidated district into not less than three (3) nor more than
nine (9) divisions, and shall name the commissioners appointed by him for the
consolidated district. The consolidated district shall be known and described
by the name and number of the largest district of those consolidated. In the
case of the consolidation of two (2) or more districts which are contiguous
and already existing and concerning each of which the confirmation of
proceedings has already been obtained, procedure the same in all respects as
herein specified for the creation of an original flood control district shall
be followed by the board of the consolidated district for the purpose of
procuring a like order, or orders, of the district court touching such
consolidation.
