A bill for an act relating to residency requirements for individuals holding office as a trustee of a drainage or levee district.
HF 486 changes residency requirements for trustees of Iowa's drainage and levee districts. Currently, trustees must live in the district's county or a neighboring county. The bill would instead require trustees to be residents of Iowa state, removing the specific county or bordering county residency requirement. This change affects individuals seeking or holding these local water management positions, making state residency the sole requirement.
