WATER DISTRICTS – Amends existing law to authorize water districts to charge certain fees.

This bill (S 1305) allows Idaho water districts to charge property owners a fixed fee - capped at $250 per user - for administrative costs related to transferring water rights when property ownership changes. It directly affects water districts and property owners during real estate transactions involving water rights. The fee, distinct from regular water assessments, must cover specific tasks like updating records and verifying ownership transfers, and water districts must document how the fee amount was determined. The bill does not alter existing assessment methods for water delivery services.
