not more than one incorporated city to be included in township; extension of

township’s boundaries.

      1.  Subject to the limitations contained in

subsection 2, the board of county commissioners of each county shall, from time

to time, as the public good may require:

      (a) Divide the county into a convenient number of

townships; and

      (b) Cause a description of such division to be

published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the county

within 10 days after adoption.

      2.  Not more than one incorporated city in

any county shall be included within the same township. When any real property

lying in one established township is annexed pursuant to law by an incorporated

city lying within an adjacent established township, the boundaries of the

township in which the annexing incorporated city lies shall be deemed to be

extended to include the real property so annexed without further action of the

board of county commissioners.
