Require that a public service district board that represents more than one community have at least one member from each community
HB 4033 requires public service district boards serving multiple communities to include at least one member from each community they represent. This applies to boards managing utilities like water, sewer, or stormwater services across jurisdictional boundaries. The bill directly affects multi-community public service districts by mandating local representation on their governing boards. It does not change service policies or funding but ensures each community has direct voice in district decisions. The bill is currently in committee review after introduction on January 14, 2026.
