(a) To provide money to pay:
(1) all general expenses of the board, including salaries of officers
and employees, fees and expenses for professional services, and
other items of expense not chargeable to the cost of property
acquisition or work done under a resolution of the board for
which bonds of the district are issued; and
(2) for the operation, maintenance, and repair of sewage works,
including the cost of the collection and removal of garbage and
ashes;
a tax on all the taxable property in the district, at the rate required to
provide the money needed to defray all expenses, shall be levied
annually by the board.
(b) The county auditor shall estimate the taxes and enter them upon
the tax duplicate, and the county treasurer shall collect and enforce the
taxes in the same manner as state and county taxes are estimated,
entered, collected, and enforced. The county treasurer shall, by the
tenth day of each month, notify the board of the amount of taxes
collected during the preceding month and shall credit a fund to be
known as the sanitary maintenance and general expense fund with that
amount. The fund may not be used for a purpose other than one stated
in this section. The board has complete and exclusive authority to
expend on behalf of the district all money thus realized. Warrants for
the expenditures shall be drawn by the municipal fiscal officer upon
vouchers of the board.
(c) The board may, by resolution, make:
(1) temporary loans in anticipation of taxes actually levied under
this section; or
(2) emergency loans for the expenditure of any sums not provided
for in the current levy of the board, for which a levy shall then be
made in the next annual budget of the board.
The loans mature and shall be paid within one (1) year after the date
the loan is made and may bear interest at any rate payable at the
maturity of the loan. The warrants or other evidence of the loans may
not be sold for less than par. Before making the loan, notice of the time,
place, amount, and terms of the loan shall be given by publication in
accordance with IC 5-3-1. The warrants carry no personal obligation
for their payment and are payable only out of the tax levied.
