(1) Should the governing body of any municipality
which is included within the district determine by ordinance, adopted after a public hearing
called and held as provided in section 32-4-508 (1)(d), that said municipality or any portion
thereof cannot feasibly be served by the district's facilities, such municipality may file with the
district a certified copy of such ordinance and request that said municipality or a designated
portion thereof be excluded from the district.
(2) Upon receipt of such ordinance the board of directors of the district shall cause an
investigation to be made to determine whether or not the municipality or the designated portion
thereof can feasibly be served by the district's facilities.
(3) (a) Upon completion of said investigation, and in any event not later than ninety days
from the filing of the ordinance with the district, the board of directors of the district shall by
resolution determine that the area sought to be excluded can or cannot be feasibly served by the
district's facilities. If the board of directors of the district determines that the area can feasibly be
served by the district's facilities, the exclusion sought shall be denied.
(b) If the board of directors of the district determines that the area sought to be excluded
cannot feasibly be served by the district's facilities, the board of directors of the district shall
adopt a resolution excluding the area from the district, and a certified copy of such resolution
shall forthwith be filed with the director of the division of local government in the department of
local affairs, who shall forthwith issue a certificate of exclusion describing the territory so
excluded and shall transmit to the clerk of the municipality three certified copies of such
certificate of exclusion, and the clerk of the municipality shall forthwith record a copy of such
certificate in the office of the county clerk and recorder of each county in which the municipality
may be located and shall deliver a copy to the county assessor and the county treasurer of each
county in which the municipality is located; but, so long as any securities of the district are
outstanding, no exclusion of territory shall be made which will reduce the revenue of the district,
nor shall any exclusion of territory reduce the district's minimum charges and charges for
availability of service.
