withdraw from such district, fifty-one percent (51%) of the affected
landowners or the board of directors by resolution may petition the
county commissioners to release those lands from the district. The

entered in the journal of the board of county commissioners and the
certificate shall be delivered to the secretary of the district who
shall, within thirty (30) days, cause the records of the district to
be amended to exclude the lands affected. Notice shall be given, as
provided in Section 1324.5 of this title, of the filing of a
petition for release of lands as provided herein, fixing the time
and place of hearing, and a copy of said notice shall be sent by
certified mail to the chairman of the board of directors of the
