Neb. Rev. Stat. § 14-2138 (2019) requires Metropolitan Utilities District to pay the city of a metropolitan class two (2) percent of the retail sales of water sold by the District within such city. Neb. Rev. Stat. § 14-2139 (2019) requires Metropolitan Utilities District to pay every city or village of any class, other than metropolitan, in which the district sells water, two (2) percent of retail sales of water within such city or village.
