Sec. 287.101.  DISSOLUTION.  (a)  A district shall be dissolved if:
(1)  the contract with the counties and hospital districts that created the district expires and is not renewed;  or
(2)  the counties and hospital districts that created the district adopt concurrent orders to terminate the contract and dissolve the district and the concurrent orders:
(A)  are approved by the governing bodies of each county and hospital district;  and
(B)  contain identical provisions.
(b)  The governing body of a county or hospital district may adopt orders to terminate the contract with the district and end the county's or hospital district's participation in the district.  The county or hospital district must give written notice to the district at least one fiscal year, as established by the board under Section 287.121, before terminating the contract and ending participation in the district.  On termination of the contract with the district, the district shall transfer to the county or hospital district all unspent funds contributed by the county or hospital district to the district and the land, buildings, improvements, equipment, and other assets acquired by the district that are located in the county or hospital district.  The termination of the contract by a county or hospital district does not affect the operation of the district with respect to each other county or hospital district that created the district.
