Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 2473 -- Public Water Supply Districts

Sponsor:  Wood

Currently, any territory included in a water supply district that
is not being served by the district may be removed from the
district by the filing of a petition by the district acting
through the board of directors with the circuit court in which
the district was incorporated.  This bill allows any person to
name the district as a defendant and serve a copy of the petition
upon the district at least 35 days before the hearing if the
district fails to file the petition.  In the event the district
is named as a defendant, it may file exceptions or objections.
The clerk of the circuit court must give notice of the filing of
the petition in a newspaper of general circulation in the county
in which the proceedings are pending.
