26567. At the close of the hearing or within 60 days thereafter, the legislative body may proceed by resolution to order the formation of the proposed district. The resolution shall appoint five owners of real property within the district to the initial board of directors for terms not to exceed four years, or, as an alternative to the appointment of five owners of real property within the district, the legislative body may appoint itself to act as the board of directors. If the legislative body appoints itself as the board of directors, Section 26583 shall not apply. If owners of real property within the district are appointed as the initial board of directors, then following the initial term, the board of directors shall be elected as provided by Section 26583. This section shall apply to all districts formed on or after January 1, 1980.

(Amended by Stats. 1991, Ch. 1226, Sec. 23.)
