To form a conservation district, twenty percent of the voters within the area to be affected may file a petition with the commission asking that the area be organized into a district. The petition shall give the name of the proposed district, state that it is needed in the interest of the public health, safety, and welfare, give a general description of the area proposed to be organized and request that the commission determine that it be created, and that it define the boundaries thereof and call an election on the question of creating the district. If more than one petition is filed covering parts of the same area, the commission may consolidate all or any of them.
