sanitary districts; directors; payment

SB 1007 clarifies governance rules for Arizona's sanitary districts, which manage waste and water systems. It requires districts covering 160+ acres to have at least three elected directors (qualified voters), establishes staggered four-year terms, and sets procedures for converting smaller districts (under 160 acres) to have their own boards after a voter petition with 25% signatures. The bill also specifies that districts must reimburse counties for election costs related to conversions or reorganizations (e.g., expanding from 3 to 5 directors), and limits reorganization elections to once every two years. This directly affects residents in these districts and the county boards managing them.
