6810.  A district may be organized pursuant to this part. A district
may include any contiguous territory in one or more counties,
contiguous to a navigable river or to any channel connected with a
navigable river, but a municipal corporation shall not be divided in
the formation of a district, and territory situated in a county in
which there is located a duly organized and existing port district,
created pursuant to Part IV of this division, may not be included.
Territory situated within the boundaries of any port or harbor
district, organized or designated and existing under the provisions
of any city charter, shall not be included. Any territory, annexed to
a municipal corporation, which is in a district, becomes a part of
the district.



6811.  Whenever the formation of a district is desired, a petition
may be presented at a regular meeting of the board of supervisors of
each county in which is located any portion of land within the
proposed district. The petition may consist of any number of
instruments and shall be signed by not less than five per cent of the
registered voters residing within the district, who voted at the
last preceding general election at which a Governor was elected. The
original petition need not be filed with the board of supervisors of
each county, but a certified copy of the original shall be filed.



6812.  The provisions of Chapters I and II of Division I of the
District Organization Act shall govern and control the proceedings
for the filing and hearing of the petition and the proceedings for
final hearing of the petition and the formation of the district. The
"supervising authority" as used in the District Organization Act
means the board of supervisors of each county in which is located any
portion of land within the proposed district.
   All proceedings necessary for the formation of the district, as
provided in Chapters I and II of Division I of the District
Organization Act, shall be had in each county in which is located any
portion of land within the proposed district. Land lying within any
county within the proposed district shall not be included unless a
majority of the electors in that portion of the district within the
county vote in favor thereof.
