This law allows a district to build and run projects or facilities either inside or outside its boundaries.

This law states that the entity has the authority to buy, receive as a gift, or otherwise obtain any land, rights of way, or other necessary property through legal means, such as condemnation, when needed for its purposes.

This law allows for the issuance and sale of bonds to fund the buying and building of projects or facilities.

This law states that the governing body is responsible for overseeing how works are built, acquired, and run. They also handle setting and collecting fees for using these works.

This law section allows the governing body to take any necessary actions, steps, or make agreements needed to carry out their responsibilities or enforce their powers as outlined in this chapter.

This law states that the organization has the authority to hire various professionals, such as engineers, architects, and attorneys, along with other needed staff, to effectively carry out its responsibilities. It can also determine their salaries.

This law requires the governing body to create rules for using sewer systems and related facilities. These rules ensure that the systems operate efficiently and successfully.

This law requires that if public roads or infrastructure are damaged or destroyed while implementing the chapter's provisions, they must be repaired and restored to their original condition as much as possible. The funds for these repairs should come from the chapter's budget.

This section gives a district the authority to manage and use resources from its sewerage system and treatment plants. It can sell or dispose of water and by-products like sewage or fertilizer, and build any necessary infrastructure for these purposes.

The district can also set up pipelines to make use of treated water for agriculture or industry, or to recharge natural water supplies.

Additionally, the district can use eminent domain—the right to take private property for public use—to fulfill its objectives. Finally, it can enter contracts with federal agencies to comply with the Emergency Relief and Construction Act of 1932.

When a community in a district gets a new sewer system, the local government must declare cesspools and other private sewage setups as public nuisances. They must also require all buildings used by people, located within 100 feet of the sewer system, to connect to it within 90 days after the system is finished.

If a project costs more than $500, it must be completed under a contract awarded to the lowest bidder. However, if certain U.S. agencies like the Reconstruction Finance Corporation require the governing body to use day labor instead of a contract, the governing body can choose that method instead.

This law requires the governing body to follow the rules of the Emergency Relief and Construction Act of 1932 related to hiring workers and other related issues. However, they should not do so if these rules contradict the state’s Constitution or other state laws.

Before starting any construction work, the local government must publish a notice inviting companies to submit sealed bids for the project. This notice should mention that the project plans are available for review. The announcement must be published twice in a local newspaper or, if not available, in a newspaper from the county where the district is located. Companies should have at least ten days from the first notice to prepare and submit their bids.

When someone submits a bid, it must include a certified check made out to the district. This check needs to be at least 10% of the total bid amount. If there isn’t a check included, the bid won’t be considered.

In this section, bids are required to be submitted to the clerk, and then the governing body must open, review, and announce them in a public meeting.

This law allows a governing body to reject all bids for a contract if they believe it's in the public's best interest. If they don't reject all, they must choose the lowest bid from a responsible bidder and can award the contract at that bid price.

If someone wins a contract bid but doesn't sign the contract within 20 days after getting a written notice, the money they put down with their bid will be taken by the district and added to its general fund. This means the bidder loses that money as a penalty.

This law requires that contractors must secure a surety bond worth at least 25% of the contract amount before starting work. This bond ensures that the contractor will complete the work as promised.

When a contractor signs a contract, they must also provide a surety bond to the governing body. This bond needs to be at least half of the total contract amount. It's meant to ensure the contractor or their subcontractors pay for materials, supplies, and equipment used for the project.

This law deals with the rules for giving notice and foreclosing liens. If someone wants to take legal action based on a bond connected to these liens, they need to do it within six months after the deadline for filing verified claims passes.

This law states that if not specified in the chapter, the bond must follow the general state laws concerning contractor bonds. This is to protect workers and suppliers, giving them the first claim to any money owed to the contractor.
