Groundwater code and city budgets pushed in Arizona session
In Phoenix on June 20 the Arizona legislature tackled two Osborn special session items groundwater regulation and municipal budget rules. Sen. Hugo Farmer proposed a voluntary groundwater districts code with landowner voting and basins, while Sen. Lloyd Canfil urged state supervision of irrigation wells to curb waste. House bills aim to allow municipalities to file new budgets within 90 days and set an allowance for 10 percent annual increases. Four appropriations bills and two employment security measures were also presented as sessions opened.
