9-431. Finding of statewide concern; preemption
of city charter
The ownership by cities and towns of tracts of land in counties other than the
county in which the city or town is located from which water is or may be withdrawn or
diverted and transported that causes the removal of the municipal property from the tax
roll of the county in which the lands are located thereby reducing the taxing and bonding
capacity of the county and other political subdivisions in which the property is located
is an issue of statewide concern that requires regulation by this state, notwithstanding
any provisions of a city charter.
