2. 2. Either the district has no obligations or the municipality or county has assumed all of the obligations of the district.
B. The district board shall comply with the conditions prescribed by subsection A of this section and shall dissolve the district if both of the following occur:
1. 1. The governing body has consented to comply with the conditions prescribed by subsection A of this section and either:
  1. (a) Dissolution has been approved by a vote of the qualified electors of the district or by the persons who are qualified to vote pursuant to section 48-707, subsection G, voting in an election called for that purpose.
  2. (b) The governing body determines that the district has been inactive for at least five consecutive years and has no future purpose.
2. 2. The district board adopts a resolution dissolving the district and records the resolution in the office of the county recorder.
C. The district board may call such an election and shall call such an election if requested to do so in a petition signed by ten per cent of the qualified electors of the district, or by the persons who are qualified to vote pursuant to section 48-707, subsection G.
D. The election shall be called and held in the same manner as a bond or tax levy election, except that the ballot shall contain the words "dissolution, yes" and "dissolution, no".
E. All property in the district, except federal, state, county and municipal property, remains subject to the lien for the payment of general obligation bonds, and any property subject to a special assessment lien remains subject to the lien notwithstanding dissolution of the district. The district may not be dissolved if any revenue bonds of the district remain outstanding unless an amount of money sufficient, together with investment income thereon, to make all payments due on the revenue bonds either at maturity or prior redemption has been deposited with a trustee or escrow agent and pledged to the payment and redemption of the bonds. The district may continue to operate after dissolution only as needed to collect money and make payments on any outstanding bonds.
