§ 6860 District Board Ordinance Powers
This law says a district’s board makes rules by a majority vote, must print those rules in a local newspaper at least five days before they become final, and any lease or franchise longer than ten years must be approved by such a rule.
A water district wants to give a private company a 15‑year lease to run a pipe.
The board has to vote and pass an ordinance, publish the ordinance in a local newspaper at least five days before it’s final, and because the lease is longer than ten years the ordinance is required for it to be valid.
