AI Summary

  • Establishes statewide requirement that cities, towns, and counties may only approve subdivision plats if the developer obtains a water report from the director of water resources showing adequate supply or obtains written commitment from a designated water provider, eliminating separate municipal ordinance adoption requirements.

  • Repeals sections 45-108.02 and 45-108.03 (exemptions for water transported by motor vehicle or train) and consolidates water supply adequacy standards across subdivisions in and outside active management areas.

  • Requires state real estate commissioner to issue public reports for subdivisions only if developer obtains adequate water supply report or commitment from designated water provider, with mandatory disclosures on promotional materials and contracts.

  • Modifies disclosure requirements so subdivisions approved under water supply adequacy provisions must record documents stating water supply determinations and any exemptions granted by local governments or the director of water resources.

  • Clarifies that upper San Pedro water district subdivisions follow distinct adequacy standards based on district management goals, while exempting mineral extraction and industrial use permits from state water supply requirements.
