HB 1534 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Modifies provisions relating to water projects constructed by certain cities

HB 1534 allows certain cities to acquire, build, and operate water-related projects - including dams, flood protection systems, mineral springs, and associated facilities like bathhouses and pipelines - as self-liquidating revenue projects. These projects must be funded without increasing city debt or using general/special taxes, instead relying on fees from operations. The bill directly affects eligible cities by expanding their authority to develop and manage such water infrastructure independently. It modifies existing provisions to clarify that these properties can be leased or conveyed while maintaining their non-tax-supported, revenue-generating status.
