• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 40: Municipal Government
• Ch. 40-61: Municipal Parking Authority Act

Text

1. It is hereby determined that the creation of an authority and the carrying out of its
corporate purposes is in all respects for the benefit of the people of the city which has
authorized it and its environs, and is a public purpose, and an authority shall be
regarded as performing a governmental function in the exercise of the powers
conferred upon it by this chapter and shall be required to pay no ad valorem taxes
upon any of the property acquired by it or under its jurisdiction or control or supervision
or upon its activities. If property acquired by an authority is leased to any person and is
used exclusively for automobile parking for general public patronage, the leasehold
interest of the lessee shall not be subject to ad valorem taxation if exempt from such
taxation by the governing board of the city in which such authority is located.
2. Any bonds or notes issued pursuant to this chapter, together with the income
therefrom, as well as the property of an authority, shall be exempt from taxation,
except for transfer and estate taxes.
