rural groundwater management areas; establishment.

Summary

The bill changes Arizona’s water‑supply law so that counties cannot approve a subdivision’s final plat unless the state water director confirms an adequate water source or the developer has a written water‑service commitment. It adds the same rule for subdivisions inside rural groundwater management areas that have adopted mandatory adequacy requirements, while allowing limited exemptions when water is transported in special ways. The goal is to protect public health by ensuring new developments have reliable water.
