§4161.1. Stormwater management utility districts; parishes and municipalities
A. The governing authority of any parish or municipality may create, by ordinance, a stormwater management utility district, referred to in this Section as the "district", for the purpose of managing stormwater flooding, including abatement of litter and other flood-causing sediments. The district shall be a political subdivision of the state as defined in the Constitution of Louisiana. The boundaries of the district shall encompass all of the territory of the respective parish or municipality. The governing authority of the respective parish or municipality shall be the governing authority of the district, referred to in this Section as the "board".
B. Any district created pursuant to this Section may create and operate one or more stormwater management utility systems within the boundaries of the respective district. The system shall be a revenue-producing public utility and shall have all of the rights, powers, and privileges granted to the utility pursuant to this Chapter and any other applicable provisions of law.
C.(1) Any district created pursuant to this Section may, by duly adopted resolution of the board, levy fees within the boundaries of the district to aid in the planning, construction, acquisition, extension, improvement, operation, and maintenance of stormwater management utility systems.
(2)(a) The fees authorized in this Section shall be imposed by resolution of the board. However, any resolution imposing fees shall be adopted only after a proposition authorizing the levy of the fees has been approved by a majority of the electors of the district voting at an election held for that purpose in accordance with the Louisiana Election Code. The purpose, term, and amount of the fees shall be as provided in the resolution.
(b)The board may provide in the resolution necessary and appropriate rules and regulations for the imposition, collection, and enforcement of the fees.
