The Board of Supervisors may call a special meeting of the District for the purposes of incurring bonded debt or entering into a long-term contract under section 36 of this chapter or for purposes of dissolution under section 53 of this chapter or for reconsideration under section 48 of this chapter. The Board shall call a special meeting if petitioned pursuant to section 48 or if requested pursuant to section 54 of this chapter to disallow an amendment to this chapter, and shall call a special meeting regarding the question of dissolution of the District if petitioned to do so by not less than five percent of the legal voters from each municipality in the District.
