| This resolve proposes to establish a study commission to |
examine water district fees assessed for fire suppression. The |
membership of the study commission would include interested |
parties throughout the State, including municipal representatives |
from large and small municipalities, public safety officials, |
firefighters, water districts, water companies and the Public |
Utilities Commission. The study commission would be charged with |
the duty of examining whether water district fees assessed for |
fire suppression are equitable and the ramifications of altering |
those fees and whether the amounts charged to municipalities |
should be limited in some way. The commission would be given |
authority to report its findings to the Second Regular Session of |
the 122nd Legislature. |
