When a city annexes new land, this bill updates the rules for how electric service can be provided to that newly annexed area by clarifying the roles of municipal utilities and rural electric cooperatives. The bill modifies provisions in state law about municipal electric services and repeals outdated rules that previously restricted electric service options in newly annexed territories.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
