§ 105283 County District Annexation Terms

This law says that when a county adds new land to a district, the county board and the district board must write down an agreement about how the annexation will work.

Key Takeaways

  • •The county board and district board must agree in writing before annexation.
  • •The agreement can include special taxes just for the county part of the district.
  • •It can set different rates, rentals, or charges for the new area.
  • •It can allow the county to take on debt, make payments, or give property to the district.

Example

A county wants to add a growing suburb to the local water district.

The county supervisors and the water district directors sit down, write an agreement, and decide that the new area will pay a special water tax, have slightly higher water rates, and the county will give the district some land for a new pump station.
