(5)   THE DIVISION OR COMBINATION, OR BOTH, OF
THE PROPERTY, ASSETS AND RIGHTS WAS DECIDED UPON AND
CARRIED OUT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SUBTITLE; AND

(6)    THE BOUNDARIES OF THE DISTRICT AS
DESCRIBED IN THE PETITION, OR FURTHER DEFINED BY THE
COMMITTEE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language
derived from Art. 66C, §102(e) of the Code
which is proposed for deletion, infra. The
present provisions providing that either
statement need contain no detail other than
"mere recitals" is omitted here because it is
unnecessary. Subsections (b) and (c) are
revised to require applicants to "recite"
facts.

The present prevision requiring the
application to contain "matters required in
subsection (f)(2), (3), (4), and (5) of §92
of this subheading" is omitted here because
this section was repealed by Ch. 752, Acts of
1969. Consequently, language added in
subsection (b) (5) , (6), (7), and (8) is
derived from the previously repealed
subsection.

Likewise, in subsection (c) new language
derived from former subsection (f) is also
added to incorporate the procedures for
swearing to the application.
