districts.
It is the purpose of K.S.A. 19-3545 to 19-3556, inclusive, and amendments
thereto, to
permit certain public agencies to make the most efficient use of their
powers relating to public water supplies by enabling them to cooperate
with other public agencies on a basis of mutual advantage and thereby to
provide services and facilities to wholesale water to participating
public agencies and to provide for the establishment for such purpose of
a quasi-municipal corporation which shall be known as a public wholesale
water supply district. The function of the public wholesale water supply
district shall be to:
(a) Secure a source of water on a scale larger than is
feasible for public water supply districts, municipalities, publicly and
privately owned water distribution companies, acting alone;
(b) sell
such water at wholesale to public water supply districts,
municipalities, and publicly and privately owned water distribution
companies; and
(c) provide services, pursuant to contract, to participating public agencies
of the district,
except that, if the contract amount for
such services is $10,000 or more, the district shall be authorized to provide
such services only if the award of the contract is based on competitive
bids.
History: L. 1977, ch. 353, § 1;
