Attachment of territory outside county by district organized within county; laws applicable

Whenever a fire district has been organized within any county as authorized by law and thereafter, territory adjacent thereto, but located in another county and not a part of any organized fire district, may be attached to such fire district in the same manner as provided in K.S.A. 19-3629, for attachment of territory to a district organized and established in more than one county. After such territory has been attached in the manner hereinbefore prescribed, notice of such attachment shall be given to the county clerk of the county wherein the territory attached is located, and such attachment shall become effective on the same date, shall be subject to tax levies, taxes shall be collected and transmitted and said district including the attached territory, shall be governed by and subject to the provisions of this act, in the same manner as though such district was originally organized and established hereunder. The county commissioners of the county in which the district was originally organized shall be the governing body of the district, regardless of the amount of territory thereafter attached to such district.
