COUNT OF VOTES -- RETURN OF ELECTION -- CANVASS -- ORDER FOR
CONSOLIDATION. Immediately following the close of the polls the boards of
election shall compute the result of the election making the count in public
view, and upon completion shall make a return of the election to the clerk of
the commissioners of their respective counties, upon forms to be supplied by
the clerk, and shall transmit with the returns all ballots cast at the
election, whether or not the ballots were counted by the election board or
rejected by them. At the earliest possible date thereafter, the commissioners
shall meet separately at their respective county seats, and canvass the
returns of the election boards within their counties. Within fifteen (15) days
after the canvass, the commissioners shall meet in joint session at a location
as shall be agreed upon by them and compile the total votes cast in their
respective counties for or against the proposal to consolidate the highway
districts concerned. If the proposal carried in each of the highway districts
concerned, the county commissioners in the joint meeting shall make and enter
an order declaring the districts consolidated in one (1) highway district of a
name or designation as may be ordered by them, and at that time the
consolidation shall be effective. The highway districts having been
consolidated shall remain in operation, with all legal authority of a highway
district, until the newly appointed highway commissioners of the consolidated
highway district meet and organize as provided in this chapter.
