practicable in the case of petitions for inclusion. The commission shall prescribe the

form for such petitions, which shall be as nearly as may be in the form prescribed by

referendum upon a petition for inclusion of additional territory, all owners of land

lying within the proposed additional area shall be eligible to vote.
