Text

(1) Each district shall have a limit
of bonded indebtedness of twenty percent of the latest valuation for assessment of

constituting any new district, shall not be considered in fixing the limit of such
twenty percent; but, if any district assumes the bonded indebtedness of any other
district, or a proportionate share thereof, existing at the time of inclusion in the
assuming district, pursuant to law, such bonded indebtedness shall be included in
the twenty percent limitation.

(2) The permission to incur additional bonded indebtedness, granted by the

subsection (2) shall not be construed to grant authority to incur bonded
indebtedness in excess of said twenty percent limitation.
