122.03 Assignment of identification numbers.

Subdivision 1. The commissioner of children, families, and learning shall, by order, assign an identification number to each district. The assignment shall be made so that each classified district has an identification number which is exclusive to it in its classification.

Subd. 2. Upon making the assignment of an identification number, the commissioner of children, families, and learning shall forthwith notify the clerk of the district and the county auditors of the counties in which any part of the district lies of the identification number assigned. A certified copy of the order may be recorded in the office of the county recorder to show the new legal name of the district.

Subd. 3. From and after the making of the order, the legal identification of the district shall become and be as assigned. All records, correspondence, reports and references to the district shall thereafter refer to the district by its proper title as assigned.

Subd. 4. A number once assigned a district under section 122.02 or under any prior law, shall not be used again to identify any district in the same classification. As the need arises, and as required by law, as new districts are formed, the commissioner of children, families, and learning shall assign unused numbers as identification. When numbered districts are dissolved, the numbers assigned them will not be reassigned to any other district.
