AN ACT relating to the extension of municipal utility service.

Summary

The bill amends state law so a city that runs a water supply or sanitary sewer can expand those systems into land that borders the city and sell water or provide sewer service there, but it cannot enter a territory already served by a water or sewer district unless that district requests the extension. It also sets rules for installing fire hydrants and gives customers the right to stay with the previous provider if the city fails to start service on time. The changes apply retroactively to past extensions.
