The bill was amended to update the legal citations and factual background regarding the Town of Monroe's water district establishment.

REQUIREMENT
Updated the specific legal sections cited for violations from section 165.00 of the Local Finance Law to section 165.10, and added a reference to section 9-a of the General Municipal Law regarding repayment requirements.
Changed the Town Law violation citation from Article 12-A to Articles 12 and 12-A to reflect the broader scope of the town's operational violations.
FISCAL
Added new factual details about $144,523 spent in 2013 for a new water well and $433,016 spent in subsequent years for water main replacements and tank rehabilitation, updating the total outstanding amount to $577,539.
