system and its recreation system, it shall publish a notice of

or no sufficient protest is filed or if an election is held and the
proposition carries by a majority of those voting thereon, the governing
body, by ordinance, may provide for the combining of its park system and
its recreation system and the establishment of a combined park
and recreation department. All property under the control or

same, shall be transferred to such department which shall administer

combination, jointly shall publish notice of the intention to combine the two
systems into a single city department of parks and recreation. Such
notice shall be published once each week for two consecutive weeks
in the official city newspaper and if within 30 days after the
last publication of
a petition
signed by at least
5% of the qualified voters of the city
requesting an election upon such
question, an election shall be called and held thereon.

held in the manner provided by the general bond law, and the cost of the
election shall be borne equally by the city and the school district. If no protest or
no sufficient protest is filed or if an election is held and the
proposition carries by a majority of those voting thereon, the governing
body, by ordinance, may provide for the combining of its park system and
