Caucus hears that water-improvement district bill would let supervisors seek voter approval and provide options for well owners
Summary
Representative Griffin said House Bill 2274 (Wilcox) would allow county supervisors to seek a public vote to form a water improvement district and provide residential well owners options to deepen wells or re-plumb for delivered water.
Representative Griffin told caucus members she concurs with the Senate amendments to House Bill 2274 and described the measure as relating to the Wilcox Water Improvement District.
Griffin said the bill "allows the supervisors to go to a vote of the people for a water district and, and also allows them to discuss options for residential well owners either to deepen their well or replumb their house for a water delivery system."
The caucus discussion presented the bill as giving local supervisors authority to pursue district formation via a public vote and to consider measures affecting private well owners' options for securing water. The transcript records sponsor concurrence and the explanatory remarks; no roll-call vote or implementing detail was recorded in the provided excerpt.
