§ 9025 Reclamation District Property Transfers

Key Takeaways

  • •If a reclamation district sells or gives away its property (like levees or land) to a drainage district or a specific project (like Sutter-Butte By-Pass Project No. 6), it can get paid with special promises to pay (called warrants).
  • •The reclamation district can swap these warrants (or part of them) for other warrants it already has, as long as both are worth the same amount plus any extra money (interest) that has built up.
  • •This rule is about making sure everyone gets a fair trade when dealing with these special promises to pay for flood control projects.

Example

Imagine a reclamation district sells a piece of land to a drainage district for a flood control project. Instead of getting cash, they get a special promise to pay (a warrant) worth $100,000.

Later, the reclamation district might want to swap this warrant for another warrant they already have. If both warrants are worth the same amount (plus any extra interest), they can make the trade.
