This bill establishes a framework for the creation of village districts aimed at protecting and remediating surface water quality. It amends existing law by adding a new responsibility for these districts, specifically the protection and remediation of surface water quality, which is denoted as item (o) in the amended text. Additionally, the bill modifies the existing list of responsibilities by removing the mention of ambulance services and adding a semicolon to connect the new item with the previous ones.

The bill seeks to promote consistent environmental policies among towns that share a body of water, thereby enhancing collaborative efforts in managing water quality. The effective date for the implementation of this act is set for 60 days following its passage.
