Allows more properties to access water, storm drains, and sanitary sewage systems.

This bill allows for the extension of publicly provided water, sewer, and stormwater facilities beyond municipal and urban growth boundaries when there are environmental or health harms from the lack of those utilities, the extension will not foster urban growth, and the affected communities and governmental bodies determine it is economically feasible and prudent. The bill also includes provisions for urban growth areas, land use planning, and the protection of critical areas.
