AI Summary

  • Requires flood control districts in counties with populations of 1.5 million or more to appoint a citizens' flood control advisory board with six members instead of seven.

  • Prohibits appointed advisory board members from being city or town employees, and makes the chief engineer or manager of major irrigation or agricultural improvement districts a nonvoting advisory member.
