8. ACCEPT PETITIONS AND SET HEARING FOR THE PROPOSED RANCHO DEL MONTE IRRIGATION WATER DELIVERY DISTRICT Pursuant to A.R.S. § 48-3423 and 48-3424, convene a public hearing to consider accepting the petitions filed for the proposed Rancho Del Monte Irrigation Water Delivery District as they have been determined to be signed by a majority of the owners of the acreage within the proposed district. The bond of $250 paid upfront to cover the costs associated with the preparation of the impact statement, petitions, publishing and posting, is sufficient and the Board of Supervisors set this public hearing for the acceptance of the petitions submitted for the organization of the district. At the hearing, any land owner within the proposed district may appear and object to the organization thereof or to the proposed boundaries thereof or to the inclusion of his land therein. The Board will hear and consider all comments in favor and against the organization of the district and decide whether to approve or reject the organization of the district with the boundaries proposed in the petition or with modified boundaries. Upon acceptance of the submitted petitions and a decision to move forward with the organization of the proposed district, the Board sets a final hearing date at 9:30 a.m. on April 6, 2016 and orders the Clerk of the Board to publish the petitions and notice twice in a newspaper and post five copies of the notice and copies of the petitions within the proposed district boundaries in conspicuous places. The proposed district is located in the Rancho Del Monte Community Subdivision in Phoenix and contains approximately 37.924 acres and 107 parcels as more completely defined in Exhibits A and B of the Impact Statement.
