without conditions, the plan of reorganization, or any alternative

the following:
(a) Make any of the findings or determinations authorized or
required pursuant to Section 56375.
(b) For any proposal initiated by the commission pursuant to
subdivision (a) of Section 56375, make both of the following
determinations:
(1) Public service costs of a proposal that the commission is
authorizing are likely to be less than or substantially similar to
the costs of alternative means of providing the service.
(2) A change or organization or reorganization that is authorized
by the commission promotes public access and accountability for
community services needs and financial resources.
(c) If applicable, assign a distinctive short-term designation to
the affected territory and a description of the territory.
(d) Initiate protest proceedings pursuant to Part 4 (commencing

by the proposal.

proceeding, on good cause being shown, correct clerical errors or
mistakes made through inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect
that may be contained in the resolution adopted by the commission
making determinations, upon written request by any member of the
commission, by the executive officer, or by any affected agency. A
correction made pursuant to this section shall not be cause for
filing a request pursuant to Section 56895.

same territory shall be initiated for one year after the date of
adoption of the resolution terminating proceedings.
(b) The commission may waive the requirements of subdivision (a)
if it finds those requirements are detrimental to the public
interest.
