A number shall be assigned to such weed district which shall be the lowest number not already taken or adopted by an intercounty weed district in the state, and thereafter such district shall be known as "weed district No. . . . .", inserting in the blank the number of the district.
If any county represented does not by a majority vote of its board of commissioners support the petition for an intercounty district, the petition shall be dismissed.
