When a city, by charter, establishes a board or commission that is elected by the people to operate a water utility or an electric utility of the city, the city and the water utility or the electric utility are separate municipal corporations for the purposes of ORS 297.405 to 297.555 and 297.990. Note: 297.527 was added to and made a part of 297.405 to 297.740 by legislative action but was not added to any other series in ORS chapter 297. See Preface to Oregon Revised Statutes for further explanation.
