After a watershed district has been in existence for at least five years and contains a federal watershed project that has not been certified infeasible by the state conservationist of the United States Natural Resources Conservation Service, whenever twenty-five percent of the eligible voters of the district petition the managers to call a special election to submit to the eligible voters of the watershed district a proposition to vote on the discontinuance of the watershed district and a settlement of its bonded and other indebtedness, the managers shall call a special election for those purposes and shall publish notice of the election in a legal newspaper of general circulation in the county or counties in the watershed district once each week for three consecutive publications.
The notice shall state that an election is to be held to determine whether the watershed district should be dissolved. The ballots shall read as follows:
For dissolution of
(Name)Watershed District ()
Against dissolution of
(Name)Watershed District ()
★   the supreme law of the land   ★
Don't Tread on Me
