Text

In lieu of tax levies or special assessments in municipalities, the district directors and the governing bodies of municipalities may enter into contracts for annual payments by the first or second municipality to the district. The governing bodies shall obligate amounts sufficient to cover annual payments to the district in the annual budgets of such municipalities. If contractual commitments between a district and a municipality are to meet, in part, obligations imposed by contract or other agreement between the district and an agency of the United States or the state, such commitments on behalf of a municipality shall be a continuing annual obligation during the life of the contract between the district and the United States in the same manner as though the municipality had entered into the contract or agreement with the United States under the provisions of § 9-36-15 or 9-43-137 . In no case may the governing board of a municipality execute a contract or agreement with the district until a favorable vote by the electorate of the municipality has been obtained for payment by the municipality under provisions of § 9-42-2 .
