72730. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 72738, whenever the board deems it necessary for any improvement district formed pursuant to this division to be dissolved, it shall by resolution declare its intention to dissolve the improvement district. As used in this chapter, "improvement district" includes an uninhabited improvement district formed pursuant to Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 71920) of Part 7 of this division. 72731. The resolution of intention shall state: (a) The reason why the improvement district should be dissolved. (b) If the improvement district was formed pursuant to Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 71870) or Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 71920) of Part 7 of this division, that no bonds have been issued for the improvement district or are outstanding. (c) If the improvement district was formed pursuant to Part 8 (commencing with Section 72000) of this division, that no indebtedness or liability was incurred for the improvement district or is outstanding. (d) That a map showing the exterior boundaries of the improvement district, with relation to the territory immediately contiguous thereto, is on file with the secretary and is available for inspection by any person or persons interested. (e) The time and place for a hearing by the board on the question of the dissolution of the improvement district. (f) That at such time and place any person interested, including all persons owning property in the district or in the improvement district will be heard. 72732. Notice of the hearing shall be given by publishing a copy of the resolution, pursuant to Section 6066 of the Government Code, prior to the time fixed for the hearing in a newspaper circulated in the district, if there is a newspaper circulated in the district. Such notice shall also be given by posting a copy of the resolution in three public places within the improvement district for at least two weeks before the time fixed for the hearing. 72733. At the time and place fixed in the resolution of intention, or at any time or place to which the hearing is adjourned, the board shall proceed with the hearing. At the hearing any person interested, including all persons owning property in the district, or in the improvement district, may appear and present any matters material to the proposed dissolution. 72734. At the conclusion of the hearing, the board shall by ordinance determine whether it is necessary to dissolve the improvement district. If so, the ordinance shall state that the exterior boundaries of the improvement district are set forth on a map on file with the secretary and shall declare the improvement district dissolved. The determinations made in the ordinance shall be final and conclusive. 72735. When the ordinance declaring an improvement district dissolved becomes effective, the dissolution of such improvement district is complete. 72736. The taxable property within the boundaries of the dissolved improvement district shall continue to be taxed for any indebtedness of the district contracted for such dissolved improvement district until the indebtedness has been satisfied, to the same extent that such property would be taxable for such purpose if the dissolution had not occurred. 72737. Any action or proceeding in which the validity of the dissolution of an improvement district, or of any of the proceedings in relation thereto, is contested, questioned, or denied shall be commenced within three months from the effective date of the ordinance dissolving the improvement district; otherwise, the dissolution of the improvement district and, all proceedings in relation thereto, shall be held to be valid and in every respect legal and incontestable. 72738. After a bond election has been held in an improvement district formed pursuant to Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 71870) of Part 7 of this division and less than two-thirds of the votes cast in such election were in favor of the measure the board may within one year of the date of such election call and hold another election as provided in Part 7 of this division for the purpose of resubmitting said measure to the electors of said improvement district. If said measure is not so resubmitted said improvement district, on the anniversary date of the election, is dissolved without further action by the board. If said measure is resubmitted and fails to receive more than two-thirds of the votes cast in such election in favor of said measure said improvement district is dissolved following the canvass of the election returns.
