11-251.09. Enforcement of water conservation plumbing requirements
A. The board of supervisors may designate an appropriate official to enforce, in unincorporated areas of the county, all or a portion of title 45, chapter 1, article 12, relating to water conservation plumbing requirements. If the board of supervisors designates an official pursuant to this subsection, it shall notify the department of water resources, in writing, of its intent to do so. An election under this subsection divests the department of water resources of jurisdiction to enforce those provisions except that the department may enforce those provisions against any person who manufactures or distributes to a wholesaler or retailer any plumbing fixture for use in this state.
B. The county may retain the revenues from all civil penalties and assessments collected by the county under this section and title 45, chapter 1, article 12 as reimbursement for the cost of past enforcement actions and to fund future enforcement efforts.
