CONTINUATION OF CERTAIN MUNICIPAL WATER BOARDS ON ANNEXATION OF WATER CONTROL AND IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT.
Text — Current through the 89th 2nd Called Legislative Session, 2025
(a) A municipal water board that was created by Section 6, Chapter 134, Acts of the 52nd Legislature, Regular Session, 1951, and that continues to exist to preserve a vested right created under that law, remains in existence with full power after the municipality annexes all the area of the water control and improvement district whose functions the municipality assumed and delegated to the water board, so long as the land located in the board's jurisdiction is used for farming, ranching, or orchard purposes.
(b) The municipal water board shall select and designate one or more depositories for the proceeds of the maintenance and water charges and other charges levied by the water control and improvement district and for any other income or other funds of the district. The water board may select a depository regardless of the fact that one or more members of the board are members of the board of directors or are stockholders of the depository.
(c) The funds of the water control and improvement district may be kept in one or more separate accounts in the depository if the funds deposited in each separate account are to be used for a different designated purpose from the funds deposited in any other separate account. The funds deposited in the depository must be insured by an official agency of the United States and must be at least as well insured and protected as funds deposited in the official municipal depository of the municipality.
