Section § 106011
From July 1, 2010, a certain agency was dissolved, and all its responsibilities and rights were transferred to a new district. This means the district now owns any property, handles contracts and debts, and manages grant rights that the agency previously had, without needing to take any additional steps.
On and after July 1, 2010, the agency is dissolved and the district succeeds to, and is vested with, all of the rights, powers, duties, and obligations of the agency. The district is the successor to the agency’s interests in any property, its rights and obligations under any contract, any outstanding indebtedness of the agency, and its rights under any grants, without the necessity of any further action.
