§ 32-1-208. Statement of purposes - districts without service plans

The following documents shall be deemed to be the statement of purposes required by this section for any special district which does not have a service plan approved pursuant to this part 2 because it was at the time of organization confined exclusively within the boundaries of a municipality, and no new statement of purposes need be filed by the special district except as required by subsection (3) of this section:

(a) The petition for organization;

(b) The resolution or ordinance of the governing body of the municipality approving the special district;

(c) Any agreements between the municipality and the district; and

(d) Any plans filed with the municipality describing the services to be provided by the special district.

(2) The statement of purposes required under this section shall describe the purposes for which the special district was organized, the services and facilities provided or to be provided by the special district, and the areas served or to be served by the special district.

(3) Any statement of purposes filed by a special district pursuant to this section shall be subject to the requirements of and may be modified in the manner provided in section 32-1-207. The board shall notify the board of county commissioners or the governing body of any municipality in which the special district is wholly or partially located of any proposed increase in the indebtedness of the district.

(4) The provisions of this section shall not apply to health service districts.
