§ 3686. Withdrawal from district
(a) A town that is a member of a consolidated sewer district may vote to withdraw from
the district if one year has elapsed since the district has become a body politic
and corporate as provided in section 3673 of this title and if the consolidated sewer district has not voted to bond itself for construction
or improvements. Any vote to withdraw before the expiration date of one year or after
the district has voted bonds or other form of long term obligation shall be null and
void.
(b) When a majority of the voters of a town present and voting at a town meeting duly
warned for that purpose shall vote to withdraw from a consolidated sewer district,
the vote shall thereupon be certified by the clerk of the town to the Secretary of
State who shall thereupon record such certificate in his or her office, and the membership
of the withdrawing town in the consolidated sewer district shall be at an end as of
December 31 immediately following or as soon thereafter as the obligations of the
withdrawing town as incurred under this chapter have been paid to the district. (1967, No. 318 (Adj. Sess.), § 15, eff. March 22, 1968.)
