Kan. Stat. § 24-1110
Should such consolidation be not requested, or, if requested and not made, the owners of lands lying within the former Missouri district may organize under any applicable laws of this state. In proceedings for a separate organization the condition of the lands at the time of the original organization of the former Missouri district shall be determinative as to the requirements of the statutes of this state as to what lands can be so organized. In the event a separate district is formed, the governing body thereof and other public officers shall have the same duties as they would have under the provisions of this act if such lands had been consolidated with an adjacent drainage district; and all other provisions of this act shall be applicable to such separate district or the lands lying therein insofar as such other provisions are consistent with the organization and operation of the separate district.
