property within the district file a petition with the board of county
commissioners requesting the dissolution of the district; or
(b) If the board of county commissioners adopts a
resolution on its own motion dissolving the district.
If a
petition is filed pursuant to this subsection, the board of county
commissioners shall, at its next regularly scheduled meeting after the petition
is filed, adopt a resolution dissolving the district. A resolution adopted
pursuant to this subsection becomes effective after all contracts for the
maintenance of a road entered into by the board pursuant to NRS 320.100 have expired.

of county commissioners pursuant to subsection 1, the board of county
commissioners shall, within 30 days after the date the resolution becomes
effective, determine whether:
(a) Any expenses of the district have not been
paid; and
(b) The money in the account created pursuant to NRS 320.120 is sufficient to pay those
expenses.
3. If the board of county commissioners
determines pursuant to subsection 2 that the money in the account:
(a) Is sufficient to pay the expenses specified
in that subsection, the board of county commissioners shall, within 10 days
after making that determination, pay those expenses from that account and, if
any money remains in the account after paying those expenses, refund that money
to the owners of real property within the district in a manner that is fair and
equitable; or
(b) Is insufficient to pay those expenses, the
board of county commissioners shall, within 10 days after making that
determination, assess each of those owners equally.
4. If the board of county commissioners
assesses an owner of real property pursuant to paragraph (b) of subsection 3,
it shall, within 30 days after making the assessment, provide a written notice
of the amount of the assessment to the owner. The owner shall, within 30 days
after receiving the notice, pay to the board of county commissioners the amount
specified in the notice.
