15-463. Annexation of military reservation to high school district or union high school district; procedure; notice; hearing
A. A high school district, or union high school district, any portion of which is contiguous to a military reservation, may at any time, and as provided in subsection B, annex all or any contiguous part of said military reservation for high school purposes only.
B. When a majority of the governing board of a high school district or a union high school district petitions the board of supervisors of the county in which the school district is located, requesting the annexation of all or a contiguous part of a military reservation, and such petition is accompanied by a petition containing the same request signed by ten or more qualified school electors residing in the school district, the board of supervisors shall within fifteen days give written notice of the proposed annexation to the commanding officer of the military reservation and to the governing board of any other high school districts or union high school districts contiguous to the military reservation, which notice shall fix a time and place not more than fifteen days after the serving of said notice for a hearing on the petitions. If, at the hearing, the commanding officer of the military reservation or other higher military authority, or the authorized agent of either, objects to the annexation, no further action shall be taken. If, however, no such objection is made at the hearing, the board of supervisors, within ten days after the hearing, shall either allow or deny the petitions. If the petitions are allowed, the board of supervisors shall forthwith notify the commanding officer of the military reservation and the county school superintendent and the annexation shall take effect immediately.
C. A high school district which annexes any or all of a contiguous part of a military reservation as provided in this section and a common school district which is coterminous with the portion of the high school district which is not part of the military reservation may operate as a unified school district under a single governing board.
