S.D. Codified Laws § 46A-3C-4 (2026)
If at least fifty percent of the votes cast are in favor of dissolving the water development district, the Board of Water and Natural Resources must, by resolution, dissolve the district and file a copy of the resolution with the secretary of state. If the vote is against dissolving the district, another vote may not be held on the question of dissolution for four years. A new election may not be held unless a new petition has been submitted to the Board of Water and Natural Resources. The costs associated with an election to dissolve a district are the responsibility of the affected district.
