SSB 1071 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act requiring that land within a levee or drainage district be included in an abstract of title.

SSB 1071 requires attorneys or abstractors to note in title abstracts whether land is located within an existing levee or drainage district. This affects property title document preparers statewide who handle land in these districts. The key provision mandates adding a specific statement about district membership to all title abstracts for such properties. The bill does not change district boundaries or responsibilities but ensures this location detail is formally documented in property records. It applies only to land within currently established districts, not new district creation.
