SB 1284 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Modifies requirements for a dissolution of a public water supply district

SB 1284 modifies Missouri's process for dissolving public water supply districts. It requires petitioners to submit detailed plans showing an alternative water supplier is available, debts will be paid in full, and assets will be sold, signed by at least 1/5 of registered voters per subdistrict. The bill mandates a court hearing, public notice, and final voter approval by a two-thirds majority (or 4/7 if the board allows) before dissolution can occur. This directly affects water districts seeking to dissolve and their residents, ensuring financial obligations are met and community input is secured.
