2025 Session Last amended: 1976 session

§ 453.62 — Construction

Plain-Language Summary

Sections 453.51 to 453.62 must be interpreted broadly to carry out their purpose. They provide complete and independent authority for municipal power agencies and should not be read as limiting their powers.

Practical Notes
Courts will interpret the Municipal Power Agency law broadly in favor of the agency’s powers. If there is any doubt about whether the agency has a particular power, the law directs that the doubt should be resolved in favor of the agency having that power.
