If any sufficient petition or resolution of application shall propose, as a part of the petition or resolution of application, that the district shall furnish gas or electric service, as provided in Sections 56129 to 56131, inclusive, a certified copy of the report of the Public Utilities Commission shall be on file with the executive officer prior to setting that petition or resolution for public hearing by the commission.

In any order approving a proposal for an annexation to, or detachment from, a district, the commission may determine that any election called upon the question of confirming an order for the annexation or detachment shall be called, held, and conducted upon that question under either of the following conditions:
  (a) Only within the territory ordered to be annexed or detached.
  (b) Both within the territory ordered to be annexed or detached and within all or any part of the district which is outside of the territory.

When a change of organization or a reorganization includes the annexation of inhabited territory to a district and the assessed value of land within the territory equals one-half or more of the assessed value of land within the district, or the number of registered voters residing within the territory equals one-half or more of the number of registered voters residing within the district, the commission may determine as a condition of the proposal that the change of organization or reorganization shall also be subject to confirmation by the voters in an election to be called, held, and conducted within the territory of the district to which annexation is proposed.
