portion of the special district without the village and that portion
within the village, in the following manner: the town board of the town
when acting as a board for special district exclusive of a member who
may reside in the village or the commissioner or commissioners of a
special district where the special district is managed by a commissioner
or commissioners exclusive of a member who may reside in the village and
the trustees of the village being unable to agree within six months
after the incorporation of the village becomes complete upon the
proportion of the debt and the apportionment of the personal and real
property, then the supreme court shall have power to determine such
division and to enforce such award, division and determination as shall
be made in the premises in a suit in equity to be brought in the name of
