Section 196. Modification of plans for sewer, wastewater disposal, drainage, water or water quality treatment districts

1. When the town board shall
  have  established a sewer, wastewater disposal, drainage, water or water
  quality treatment district and adopted a plan  of  sewerage,  wastewater
  disposal,  drainage,  water  or  water quality treatment system for such
  district, such plan shall not be modified  by  the  board,  nor  by  any
  officer  of the town, except after public notice given by publication in
  the official paper of intention to modify the same, which  notice  shall
  specify the particulars in which it is proposed to modify it, and a time
  and  place when the board will consider any objections which may be made
  thereto, which time shall not be less than ten nor more than twenty days
  after the first publication of said notice. When  any  change  shall  be
  made  in the plan proposed and once adopted, a revised or additional map
  and profile shall be made showing the change,  and  all  such  maps  and
  profiles  shall  be  carefully preserved in the office of the town clerk
  and open to inspection by all persons interested.
    2. In the case of water quality  treatment  districts,  amendments  or
  modifications  of plans must have the written approval of the department
  of health prior to adoption. At the request of an owner of a  parcel  of
  property  within the town, if the private well water on such property is
  contaminated, a water quality treatment district plan  may  be  amended,
  from  time to time, to include said parcel of property. If an owner of a
  parcel of property within the town requests exclusion from the district,
  such request shall be granted without the  state  department  of  health
  approval.  The  removal of a parcel of property from a district shall in
  no way affect the owner's  liability  for  charges  which  have  accrued
  against   the  owner's  property,  prior  to  said  exclusion,  for  the
  procurement, installation, modification, replacement and  removal  of  a
  water  quality treatment unit or device or for expenses of operation and
  maintenance including monitoring, testing,  regenerating  and  treating.
  Should  a public or private water system, supplier or authority commence
  supplying water to  any  parcel  of  property  within  a  water  quality
  treatment   district,  such  parcel  of  property  shall  no  longer  be
  considered part  of  the  water  quality  treatment  district,  and  all
  services  to  such  parcels shall be terminated. Termination of services
  shall include, the removal of  all  water  quality  treatment  units  or
  devices and a charge for the cost of doing so to the benefited property,
  except  when  such unit or device was acquired and owned by the property
  owner or when the district  determines  that  such  unit  or  device  is
  obsolete and no longer useful for any district purpose.
