court.
The district attorney for the county in which the situs of the
municipal government is located may petition for involuntary
dissolution of a municipality when the government of a municipality
ceases to function by reason of the following:
1. General municipal elections have not been called in the
municipality for two successive general municipal elections;
2. A majority of all the members of the governing body fail to
qualify for two successive general municipal elections; or
3. The municipality is totally within an area subject to
subsidence, environmental contamination or flooding as a result of
mining operations, dam construction or natural causes beyond the
control of the municipality, and said municipality is unable to meet
the cost of continuing its government and maintaining its services
to residents due to a reduction in population resulting from such
circumstances.
The petition requesting involuntary dissolution shall be filed in
the district court in the county in which the situs of the
municipality is located. The petition shall state the facts which
justify the request and shall set forth a detailed statement of the
assets and liabilities of the municipality insofar as they can be
ascertained.
