Specifies that all costs of special district elections, including ballot preparation and signature comparison, shall be charged against the special district's funds.

Requires petitioners to file a bond with security approved by the board of supervisors before an election is held for district formation, sufficient to cover expenses if the election fails.

Permits special district governing bodies to contract with the board of supervisors and county recorder for election services, with contracted costs charged against the special district.
