Utility districts; authorize to dissolve by chancery court order of dissolution.

HB 1452 allows utility districts in Mississippi to dissolve if a majority of landowners (excluding state-owned land) sign and file a petition with the local chancery court. The bill establishes a process where the court holds a hearing after public notice, then decides whether dissolution benefits landowners - either dissolving the district entirely or requiring commissioners to form a water association under nonprofit laws. It also addresses how the district’s assets and debts would be handled during dissolution. The bill died in committee in 2026 and was never enacted into law.
