HB 1416: Irrigation distrct financing

Concerning the financing of irrigation district improvements.

Summary

  • Makes numerous changes to provisions governing local improvement districts (LIDs) created by irrigation districts, including: (1) specifying that LID bonds do not constitute a general indebtedness against the issuing irrigation district; (2) authorizing LIDs to be comprised of noncontiguous territory and formed in a neighboring irrigation district; (3) establishing provisions governing what "improvement costs" in an LID must include; and (4) removing provisions allowing farm and agricultural land to be exempt from special benefit assessments of LIDs within irrigation districts.
  • Provides that contracts entered by irrigation districts with the United States to indemnify against liability for damages caused by the federal government are not enforceable absent express authorization in state law.
