In addition to such forms of organization, whenever in the opinion of the board of directors of said district it is feasible and necessary that ditches, canals, reservoirs, or other works which benefit only a part of the district should be constructed, a local improvement district or subdivision, or as many of such local improvement districts as may be necessary, may be created. Such local improvement district, when organized under the provisions of this article, shall be designated as ”Water Users' Association No. .... in the Southwestern Water Conservation District“, or as ”Special Improvement District No. .... in the Southwestern Water Conservation District“.
