Section 31-21-106 - Taxes for interest and redemption

The interest accruing on such funding bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of this part 1 prior to the time when tax levies are available therefor shall be paid out of the general revenues of the municipality. For the purpose of reimbursing such general revenues and for the payment of subsequently accruing interest, the governing body issuing such funding bonds or the proper tax assessing and collecting officers upon whom shall devolve the duty of levying and collecting municipal taxes shall levy annually a sufficient tax upon all of the taxable property in the municipality fully to discharge such interest. For the ultimate redemption of such funding bonds, there shall be levied annually such a tax upon all the taxable property in such municipality as will create a fund sufficient to discharge each annual installment of such funding bonds at the maturity thereof, which fund shall be called the redemption fund. All taxes for interest on and for the redemption of such bonds shall be paid in cash only and shall be kept by the municipal treasurer as a special fund to be used only in payment of the interest upon and for the redemption of such bonds. Such tax shall be levied and collected as other municipal taxes are levied and collected. The tax provisions for the ultimate redemption of such bonds shall be set forth in the ordinance authorizing their issue and shall set forth the years in which such taxes shall be levied for the creation of said redemption fund.
