fixed by the board of county commissioners for the holding of the first
election in such district, ascertain from the tax rolls of the preceding
year the names of all taxpayers who are qualified electors residing
within the district, and deliver a certified list of the same to one of

only persons who are taxpayers and residents within such district and

of the resident taxpayers and qualified electors under the constitution
at any subsequent year upon request by the board of directors of said
