CURRENT BILL SUMMARY
SB 740 - Under current law, counties that are subject to certain Environmental Protection Agency storm water regulations have authority to: 1) adopt local regulations deemed reasonably necessary to comply with the federal regulations; 2) allow a storm water control utility to administer its local storm water regulations, including the imposition of a user fee; and 3) establish a storm water control utility tax, if approved by voters. This act changes the local entity to which this section applies from "county" to "political subdivision."
