2. Capital improvement district. "Capital improvement district" means a defined area within a municipality that is initially privately owned and that has been designated by the municipality as a capital improvement district according to the provisions of this chapter for the interrelated purposes of fairly apportioning the costs of making necessary capital improvements among the owners of property in the capital improvement district and establishing the public elements of the capital improvement district as municipally owned.
[ 2003, c. 510, Pt. A, §29 (NEW) .]
3. Improvement. "Improvement" means road construction, drainage system development or the installation of sewer or drinking water infrastructure.
[ 2003, c. 510, Pt. A, §29 (NEW) .]
