The bill would authorize the governing body of each political subdivision that created a district to dissolve the district by adopting a concurrent order. The assets and liabilities of a dissolved district must be transferred to the county in which the district is located and after payment of district liabilities, the county would be required to use remaining district assets for an approved venue project of the county.
