Before the people of any city or town or part or district of any city
or town can avail themselves of the provisions of this section and of sections 31-35-104 to 31-
35-110, the question to determine their wishes shall first be submitted to the registered electors
of said city or town or part or district of the city or town at a special election to be called by the
mayor of said city or town upon petition presented to him signed by at least one hundred
taxpaying electors who reside in the city or town or that part or district of the city or town for
which the board of trustees may be asked. If the entire city or town is proposed to be included
within the jurisdiction of such board of trustees, such election may be held in conjunction with
the regular election. At said election the ballot or voting machine tabs shall be "For the Board of
Trustees" and "Against the Board of Trustees". The election shall be conducted by the clerk in
accordance with the provisions of the "Colorado Municipal Election Code of 1965" insofar as
practicable. If the majority of votes cast is against the creation of the board of trustees, no further
action may be taken under this section and sections 31-35-104 to 31-35-110 for a period of one
year from such election and then only on petition as provided in said sections.
