Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Hamilton County, Amy M. Moore, Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Heard by Schumacher, P.J., Langholz, J., and Gamble, S.J.*  Opinion by Schumacher, P.J.  (8 pages)

            The Hamilton County Board of Supervisors (Board) as trustee of Drainage District No. 71 (DD71) appeals the district court decision reversing its decision to annex certain property into DD71.  OPINION HOLDS: There is not sufficient information in the annexation report to show the land the Board sought to annex into the drainage district would be materially benefited by the annexation, and therefore the land should not be annexed.  We affirm the decision of the district court.
