KRS 220.530: Annexation of district or part of district by city.

Where a city having existing sewers constructed and maintained by general tax funds of

the city annexes an entire sanitation district, the city shall be bound for all the debts and

liabilities, and be the owner of all the property and rights, of the distri ct, the users of

sewers in the district shall be relieved from any further rentals and obligations, and the

district shall thereupon be automatically dissolved. If only a portion of a sanitation district

is annexed, the city shall be the owner of all the s ewers within the annexed portion, the

amount of the existing debts and liabilities for which the city shall be bound shall be in

such proportion as the amount of rentals within the territory annexed bears to the amount

of rentals in the entire district, th e city shall in the same proportion contribute its

proportionate share to the cost of the operation and maintenance of a sewer disposal plant

or system as long as such plant or system is used by the property within the annexed area,

and the users of sewers in the annexed portion shall be relieved from any further rentals

or obligations to the district. Any city annexing a portion of a sanitation district may

furnish sewage disposal for the portion of the district annexed and discontinue the use of

the distr ict's sewage disposal plant or system, in which event the city shall be relieved

from any further contribution towards the cost of operation or maintenance of the

district's plant or system.
