Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for the purpose of furnishing water in the district for any present or future beneficial use, the Lost Hills Sanitary District may exercise any of the powers of a county water district, including the power to acquire, operate, finance, and control water rights, works, property, rights, and privileges useful or necessary to convey, supply, store, or make use of water for any useful purpose, all in the same manner as county water districts formed under the County Water District Law (Division 12 (commencing with Section 30000) of the Water Code). However, the Lost Hills Sanitary District shall otherwise continue to be governed in all respects as a sanitary district under the provisions of this part, and the provisions of this section are intended only to vest additional powers in the district which the district may elect to exercise.
