19-31-3 - Legislative findings.

§ 19-31-3. Legislative findings.
 

The Legislature finds that: 
 

(a) There is a need for uniform, focused and fair procedures in state law to provide a reasonable alternative for the establishment, power, operation and duration of independent districts to manage and finance basic public improvement services; and that, based upon a proper and fair determination of applicable facts, an independent district can constitute a timely, efficient, effective, responsive and economic way to deliver these basic services, thereby providing a solution to the state's planning, management and financing needs for delivery of capital infrastructure in order to service projected growth without overburdening counties and municipalities and their taxpayers. 

(b) It is the legislative intent and purpose to authorize a uniform procedure by general law to establish an independent special district as an alternative method to manage and finance basic services for public improvements through the levy and collection of special assessments. It is further the legislative intent and purpose to provide by general law for the uniform operation, exercise of power and procedure for termination of any such independent district. It is further the purpose and intent of the Legislature that a district created under this act not have or exercise any zoning or permitting power. It is further the purpose and intent of the Legislature that no debt or obligation of a district shall constitute a burden on any local government without its consent.
