Section § 25725

Explanation

This law allows a board to impose additional charges up to $40,000 per year for emergency repairs to canals or water supplies if there is an interruption. The decision can be made by at least four-fifths of the board members without needing voter approval.

In cases of emergency by which the flow of water in a canal or other supply is interrupted, the amount of the cost of the repairs not to exceed in any one year forty thousand dollars ($40,000) may, in addition to any other assessments, be levied by the adoption of a resolution by at least four-fifths of the members of the board at the time of the levying of the annual assessment, without the submission of a proposal for the levy to the voters.
