(a) At any time after final passage of an ordinance or resolution annexing territory to a municipality in the district, the board may give notice of a hearing on the question of annexing that territory to the district. The notice is sufficient if it:
(1) states the date and place of the hearing; and
(2) describes the area proposed to be annexed or refers to the annexation ordinance or resolution of the municipality.
(b) The notice must be published one time in a newspaper of general circulation in the municipality not later than the 10th day before the date set for the hearing.
(c) If, as a result of the hearing, the board finds that the territory will benefit from the present or contemplated improvements, works, or facilities of the district, the board shall adopt a resolution annexing the territory to the district.
(d) After the territory is annexed to the district, the board may call an election in the entire district to determine whether:
(1) the entire district will assume any tax-supported bonds then outstanding and those bonds previously voted but not yet sold; and
(2) an ad valorem tax for the payment of the bonds will be imposed on all taxable property in the district.
