BE IT ENACTED BY THE

Sec. 1. RCW 52.06.050 and 1947 c
254 s 16 are each amended to read as follows:
The board of the
merging district shall notify the board of the merger district of the results
of the election. If ((three-fifths)) a majority of the votes
cast at the election favor the merger, the respective district boards shall
adopt concurrent resolutions, declaring the districts merged, under the name of
the merger district. Thereupon the districts are merged into one district,
under the name of the merger district; the merging district is dissolved
without further proceedings; and the boundaries of the merger district are
thereby extended to include all the area of the merging district. Thereafter
the legal existence cannot be questioned by any person by reason of any defect in
the proceedings had for the merger.
