California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from City of Escalon v. Escalon Sanitary Dist., 179 Cal.App.2d 475, 3 Cal.Rptr. 889 (Cal. App. 1960):
'In Pixley v. Saunders, 168 Cal. 152, 160, 141 P. 815 (decided in 1914) it was held that 'in enacting the sanitary district acts, the legislature had in mind the sanitation of any territory which might conveniently be served by a single system, whether wholly unincorporated or not, and that a sanitary district formed under said act preserves its identity and retains its powers over the whole territory, except in the event of its complete absorption of a municipality.' (Italics supplied.)'
