PRC § 9412 Effective Jan 1, 2023Div. 9 · Ch. 3 · Art. 9

Statute text

Each district may provide technical assistance to private landowners or land occupants within the district to support practices that minimize soil and related resource degradation and support increased resiliency and adaptation to climate change. When in the judgment of the directors it is for the benefit of the district so to do, the directors may give assistance to a private landowner or land occupant within the district in seeds, plants, materials, and labor, and may loan or rent to that private landowner or that land occupant agricultural machinery or other equipment. Assistance shall not be given or loans shall not be made unless the landowner or land occupant receiving the aid or assistance agrees to devote and use the aid or assistance on their lands within the district in furtherance of objectives of the district and in accordance with district plans or regulations. Notwithstanding the fact that the landowner or land occupant is also a director, any landowner is qualified to and may receive assistance or loans under this section.
