SECTION 9330-9345
9330. Upon the expiration of the 30-day period mentioned in Chapter 4 of this part, an election shall be called and held by the board in that part of the drainage district affected by the assessment or the issuance of bonds, to determine whether the money necessary to pay the cost of the works and other expenses to be paid out of the assessment shall be raised by calls to be made upon the assessment in such installments as may from time to time be determined by the board, or whether bonds of the drainage district shall be issued in an amount equal to the amount of the assessment then remaining unpaid. 9331. The unpaid amount shall be entered by the board in its records and stated by the board in its order for the election and the order for the election shall be entered upon the minutes of the board. 9332. At the election the owner of each tract of land assessed in and by the assessment, upon which the assessment has not been paid as provided in Chapter 4 of this part, may, in person or by proxy, cast one vote for each one cent ($0.01) of the amount for which the tract is assessed by the assessment. 9333. In case there is more than one owner of any tract of land separately assessed in and by the assessment, all of the owners shall unite in the ballot to be cast at the election for and on behalf of the tract, or shall authorize one or more of their number or some other person to cast the vote for them by proxy. 9334. Guardians, conservators, executors, administrators and other persons holding land in a trust capacity under appointment of court may vote at the election without obtaining special authority therefor. 9335. The vote of any public or private corporation or of any reclamation district, levee district, drainage district or other public agency entitled to vote at the election, may be cast by any person authorized by the board of directors or trustees or other managing body thereof. 9336. The authorization shall be in writing and certified to by the secretary or clerk of the district or public agency and attested by its seal duly acknowledged and filed with the board of election. 9337. No person shall vote by proxy at the election unless authority to vote is evidenced by an instrument in writing duly executed, acknowledged and certified in the same manner as grants of real property and filed with the board of election. 9338. In case of change of ownership of any tract of land, or in case the name of the owner of any tract of land is not correctly stated in the voting list, or in case the land is assessed to unknown owners, the right to vote shall belong to the owner of the land at the time of the holding of the election. 9339. If the right of any person to vote as the owner of any such tract of land is disputed or challenged, the question of his right to vote shall be determined by the board of election after examining him under oath. 9340. The oath may be administered by any member of the board of election. 9341. Any person testifying falsely upon such examination is guilty of perjury. 9342. Any person voting or attempting to vote at the election who is not entitled to vote at it, as provided in this part, is subject to the same penalties and punishments as provided by the general election laws of this State, for voting or attempting to vote illegally. 9343. For the purpose of determining the "reference number" of each tract separately assessed upon the assessment lists, the board shall, before preparing the voting lists, cause each tract of land separately assessed upon the assessment lists, unless already done, to be given a separate number designated as the "reference number" of the tract. The reference numbers shall be entered upon the assessment lists opposite the several tracts separately assessed. 9344. If the result of the election provided for in this chapter is against the issuance of bonds, then the assessment, or that portion thereof involved in and affected by the election shall be ordered paid and collected in such installments and as often as may in the judgment of the board be necessary for the purpose for which the assessment was originally levied as provided in Part 5 of this division. 9345. All subsequent proceedings in regard to the assessment shall be conducted as provided in Part 4 of this division and without any further reference to the provisions of this part.
