Okla. Stat. tit. 82, § 82-665: Subdistricts - Administration

Whenever it is desired to construct improvements wholly within

or partly within and partly without any district organized under

this act, which improvements will affect only a part of said

district, for the purpose of accomplishing such work, subdistricts

may be organized upon petition of the owners of real property,

within or partly within and partly without the district, which

petition shall fulfill the same requirements concerning the

subdistricts as the petition outlined in Section 4 of this act is

required to fulfill concerning the organization of the main

district, and shall be filed with the clerk of the same district

court, and shall be accompanied by a bond as provided for in Section

5 of this act. All proceedings relating to such subdistricts shall

conform in all things to the provisions of this act relating to the

organization of districts. Whenever the court shall, by its order

duly entered of record, declare and decree such subdistricts to be

organized, the clerk of said court shall thereupon give notice of

such order to the directors of the district, who shall thereupon act

also as directors of the subdistricts. Thereafter, the proceedings

in reference to the subdistricts shall in all matters conform to the

provisions of this act; except that in appraisal of benefits and

damages for the purposes of such subdistricts, in the issuance of

bonds, in the levying of assessments or taxes, and in all other

matters affecting only the subdistricts, the provisions of this act

shall apply to this subdistrict as though it were an independent

district, and it shall not, in these things be amalgamated with the

main district.

The board of directors, board of appraisers, chief engineer,

attorney, secretary and other agents and employees of the district

shall, so far as it may be necessary, serve in the same capacities

for such subdistrict, and contracts and agreements between the main

district and the subdistrict may be made in the same manner as

contracts and agreements between two districts. The distribution of

administrative expense between the main district and subdistrict

shall be in proportion to the interests involved and the amount of

service rendered, such division to be made by the board of directors

with an appeal to the court establishing the district. This section

shall not be held to prevent the organization of independent

districts for local improvements under other laws, within the limits

of a district organized under this act, as provided in Sections 59

and 60 of this act.
