This would 15% of the currently registered voters in the Lynden School District, which is the area to be included in the proposed district. 2)Upon receipt of the certification by the Auditor the County Council should call for a public hearing for the consideration of the formation of the district. This should be done as soon as possible because of the requirements for publication and the deadline for setting the election no later than 45 days prior to Novemeber 5, 1996. If the County Council requires that a resolution be adopted for the hearing this will have to be written. I do not believe that this is necessary but if that is their procedure than it should be done. If this placed on the agenda now, for the July 23rd County Council meeting the County Attorneys' office will probably be asked to write the resolution for the July 23rd meeting. I would be glad to write it in draft for consideration by the County Attorney if you would like and if the County needs it to call for the hearing. The hearing should be set far enough ahead to allow for three publications, each a week apart, noticing the hearing. This publication cost will be paid by the County to be reimbursed by the two people signing the agreement to do so. You have already supplied that to the County Auditor. If the hearing is called on July 23rd then the hearing could be held on August 20th. If the hearing is not called until August 6th then the hearing could be held on September 3rd. 3)The hearing notice is then published three times in "a newspaper of general circulation in the County" I believe that this could be the Lynden Tribune but the County may require it to be in the Bellingham Herald. That will be up to them. 4)At the hearing the County Council hears testimony as to why or why not an election should be held to consider the matter. 5)After the hearing the County Council shall "designate a name for and fix the boundaries of the proposed district" and call for the election on the formation of the district.. 6)Once this is done there is a open period of filing for the five commissioners for the district and a ballot is developed with the questions to be voted on. This would include the five commissioner positions, the question as to formation or not and any financial questions. 7)The election has to be held on November 5(General election) 1- 14- -A. - I o 2— 2- -48 -- 9 3-1'S 49- 12 _In tea- 2-0 5^14 S► -2-� - G-9 .. 7— f 3 5 3 -- 2r� S— l 54—Zc� a H 7- 12-1 7--20 1-2 19 61-19 (7 � I?S 62 — I � 18 - - - ,6- 3 - 1 7 1,9 -- 64 — rL o-20 13 2- 69-1 D - - - 7 71-- t 2- Z7- 2d 7-2- 1 3 2--S --- 1 '7 73— 13 2-9 -,2 74-- p 30 -- t 75--1z ?,[ — )D 76�-- 1( 3�-2D 34 — Z 35 - 2c) :7,9 -- s 36- 2.r� SD - f u 37 - �r� g I - 8 �� - S 3� - ZD ��-- 8 59 -2 r] S4 — 7 4a-2-D 4-c-QO 13 _1( 06-11 43-I6 eS- 4- 4-4- - .5 45—I1 69 -- 5 L-G-ID 92-7 94 9 96-9 �� F 9-8 = 9-M- - �/-3 /3RS` 236 - _ 1 -1,3I f 3--y-13- f Parks and Recreational Facilities 36.68.580 park facility or park acquired, improved or otherwise 36.69.020 Formation of district by petition —Procedure. financed in whole or in part by park and recreation service 36.69.030 Area which may be included —Resolution of governing body area funds shall be owned by the park service area and/or of city or town. the county and/or the city or town in which the park or 36.69.040 36.69.050 Hearing on petition —Notice.

This would allow for a more stable funding source for park and recreation districts and park and recreation service areas at a realistic tax rate and reduce the need for holding excess levy elections on an annual or biannual basis. in addition, it would level out the collection of taxes over each of six years rather thaq the practice now of collecting in one year to fund two years.- [1994 c 156 § 1.1 Purpose-1984 c 186: See note following RCW 39.46.110.
