Certain water and sewer districts addition to the definition of municipality

SF 1398 adds certain water and sewer districts to the legal definition of "municipality" in Minnesota law, specifically those formed under Chapter 116A. This change directly affects these districts by subjecting them to the same legal standards as cities and counties for tort liability (legal responsibility for damages). The bill amends Minnesota Statutes § 466.01 to include these districts in the definition and sets a maximum limit for their tort liability. The law takes effect August 1, 2025, applying to claims arising after that date.
