(1) All of Minnehaha, Moody, Brookings, Hamlin, Deuel, Codington and Grant counties;
(2) All of Lake County, with the exception of Clarno, Concord, Orland, Wayne, and Winfred townships;
(3) Badger township in Kingsbury County; and
(4) All municipalities that are wholly or partially within the included area or that are contiguous to the included area.
Section 2. That 46A-3A-7.1 be AMENDED:
46A-3A-7.1. The Vermillion Basin Water Development District is hereby established. The district includes:
(1) All of Turner, McCook, and Clay counties;
(2) All of Kingsbury County, with the exception of Badger township;
(3) Clarno, Concord, Orland, Wayne, and Winfred townships in Lake County;
(4) Adams, Belleview, Canova, Clearwater, Grafton, Henden, Howard, and Vermillion townships in Miner County; and
(5) All municipalities that are wholly or partially within the included area.
Section 3. That 46A-3B-2.1 be AMENDED:
46A-3B-2.1. For any water development district having director areas that will be realigned as a result of 46A-3B-2, any director of the district who is in office on January 1, 2024, shall continue to serve as a director if the director remains a resident of the district.
Section 4. That 46A-3E-1 be AMENDED:
46A-3E-1. A water development district board of directors may levy taxes, not to exceed thirty cents per thousand dollars of taxable valuation in the district, for accomplishment of the purposes of chapters 46A-3A to 46A-3E, inclusive, and chapters 46A-1 and 46A-2. If an area is included in more than one water development district, that area's tax levy payable to each of the water development districts is determined by multiplying the greater of the overlapping water development districts' levies by each water development district's taxing fraction. Each water development district's taxing fraction is determined by dividing that water development district's proposed tax levy for the overlapped area by the sum of all water development districts' levies for the overlapped area.
