(6) The district may thereupon make and publish an order creating such construction subdistrict, and its order as provided in KRS 76.246(2), without further action being <br>required, and may thereupon proceed to carry out said plan for improvements <br>without further recourse to said identified statutory provisions and formalities; but <br>in all such instances the written request or requests of the owner or owners of all <br>properties proposed to be included within the territorial boundaries of such <br>construction subdistrict shall be in recordable form and shall be recorded in the <br>office of the county clerk of the county wherein the properties are situated, and said <br>clerk is authorized to record such instruments as in the case of mortgages and may <br>charge and receive fees therefor as in the case of mortgages. Each resolution of the <br>district, by which an improvement is undertaken according to this section, shall <br>contain a recitation of the receiving of written requests and waivers from the owners <br>of all properties included within the territorial boundaries of the construction <br>subdistrict.
