§ 20800 Formation Petition Submission

• •To start something new (like a special district or project), you have to ask the main county leaders first.
• •You do this by giving them a special paper called a 'formation petition'.
• •This rule was made a long time ago, in 1943.

A group of neighbors want to create a new park in their area.

They have to write down their request on a special paper and give it to the leaders of the main county where the park would be. The leaders will then look at their request.
