of inclusion of land owner's(s') lands. Land owner(s) agree(s) to waive any right
to an election which may exist to require an election pursuant to Article X, Section

also agree(s) to waive, upon inclusion, any right which may exist to a refund
pursuant to Article X, Section 20, of the Colorado Constitution.
