DESCRIPTION



The act includes language modifications clarifying that exceptions to the formation of a district may be made by any voter, landowner or by any municipality with boundaries located not more than two miles from any boundary of the proposed district.

The other change in the substitute involved restoring the six month standard for developing agreements to provide water service to annexed territories.

This act requires that the petition needed to form a public water supply district be verified by at least of the signers of the petition. The verification shall include a statement confirming that service has been made by mail to municipalities located within two miles of the boundary of the water supply district sought.

This act eliminates the six-month restriction limiting municipalities and public water supply districts from forming agreements to provide water service to areas that have been annexed to the municipality.

This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
