	BILL TEXT


INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Cristina Garcia
   (Coauthor: Assembly Member Rendon)

                        FEBRUARY 4, 2016

   An act to amend Section 71250 of the Water Code, relating to
municipal water districts.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1794, as introduced, Cristina Garcia. Municipal water
districts: board of directors.
   Existing law, the Municipal Water District Law of 1911, provides
for the formation of municipal water districts and grants to those
districts' specified powers. Existing law permits a district to
acquire, control, distribute, store, spread, sink, treat, purify,
recycle, recapture, and salvage any water for the beneficial use of
the district, its inhabitants, or the owners of rights to water in
the district. Existing law requires the board of directors of a
district to consist of 5 members and each director to be a resident
of the division from which the director is elected.
   This bill would make a nonsubstantive change in these provisions.

   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 71250 of the Water Code is amended to read:
   71250.  The board of directors shall consist of five members. Each
director shall be a resident of the division from which he  or
she  is elected.
