1. If a city is situated wholly or partly within a benefited water district or the source of supply for a benefited water district is a municipal water system, the board of supervisors having jurisdiction of the benefited water district, at the request of the trustees of the benefited water district, may, by proper resolution, convey to the city any and all rights that the board of supervisors may have in and to the benefited water district. The conveyance, however, shall not become effective until all existing obligations against the district have been completely and fully discharged and the conveyance accepted and confirmed by a resolution of the council of that city or of the board of waterworks trustees of that city, if there is one, specially passed for that purpose. 2. Upon acceptance, the district, including the plant and distribution system, as well as all funds and credits, shall become the property of the city and be operated and used by the city to the same extent as if acquired under such provisions of law under which the city is then operating its waterworks. Upon acceptance by the city, the offices of the trustees as provided in this chapter shall be abolished and the duties of the trustees as such shall immediately cease.
