§ 110-47. Discontinuance of service district.

(a)

If the county council in its discretion adopts or enacts a legally required ordinance or resolution discontinuing any service district, the cost of all initial improvements made, installed or otherwise provided prior to the discontinuance of any service district shall be first paid in full to the county, at which time the county's obligation to maintain or otherwise provide service in the district shall cease; and the property owners shall be responsible for all future maintenance, upkeep and other services within the discontinued district.

(b)

If at any time a petition is received from 51 percent or more of the owners of the lands involved in the benefited area, or the owners of 51 percent or more of the lands involved in the benefited area, requesting the discontinuance of the service district as provided in this section, the county council, after due notice and public hearing to determine the practicality and feasibility of discontinuing said district, may adopt and enact, if it so desires, all appropriate and legally required ordinances or resolutions to discontinue the said service district. The same procedure used under this article to enact or implement service districts shall be used in any and all proceedings to discontinue any such service district.
