What’s in it

This bill provides for improvements to land which is part of a drainage or levee district as established by a board of supervisors (board), and which may include land owned by a railroad company (company). The board may notify a company to construct or reconstruct a culvert or bridge that intersects with a railroad right-of-way so as not to interfere with the drainage of surface water. The company must comply with the terms of the board’s notice at the company’s expense. The bill provides that the same procedure governs the construction or reconstruction of a drainage tile line.
