. (a) If a board of directors desires to divest itself of a
power that is authorized pursuant to this chapter and if the
termination of that power would require another public agency to
provide a new or higher level of services or facilities, the district
shall first receive the approval of the local agency formation
commission. To the extent feasible, the local agency formation
commission shall proceed pursuant to Article 1.5 (commencing with
Section 56824.10) of Chapter 5 of Part 3 of Division 3. After
receiving the approval of the local agency formation commission, the
board of directors may, by ordinance, divest itself of that power.
(b) Notwithstanding subdivision (a) of Section 56824.14, the
local agency formation commission shall not, after a public hearing
called and held for that purpose pursuant to subdivisions (b) and (c)
of Section 56824.14, approve a district's proposal to exercise a
latent power if the local agency formation commission determines that
another local agency already provides substantially similar services
or facilities to the territory where the district proposes to
exercise that latent power.
(c) If a board of directors desires to divest itself of a power
that is authorized pursuant to this chapter and if the termination of
that power would not require another public agency to provide a new
or higher level of services or facilities, the board of directors
may, by ordinance, divest itself of that power.
