2013 Mississippi Code
Title 19 - COUNTIES AND COUNTY OFFICERS
Chapter 31 - PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICTS
§ 19-31-45 - Disclosure statement in contracts and instruments of conveyance of parcels of real property


MS Code § 19-31-45 (2013) What's This?

After the establishment of a district under this chapter, each contract and instrument of conveyance of a parcel of real property within the district shall include, immediately before the space reserved in the contract and instrument of conveyance for the signature of the purchaser, the following disclosure statement in boldfaced and conspicuous type which is larger than the type in the remaining text of the contract and the instrument of conveyance: "THE (Name of District) PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT MAY IMPOSE AND LEVY ASSESSMENTS ON THIS PROPERTY. THESE ASSESSMENTS PAY THE CONSTRUCTION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COSTS OF CERTAIN PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES OF THE DISTRICT AND ARE SET ANNUALLY BY THE GOVERNING BOARD OF THE DISTRICT. THESE ASSESSMENTS ARE IN ADDITION TO COUNTY AND OTHER LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS AND ALL OTHER TAXES AND ASSESSMENTS PROVIDED FOR BY LAW."

However, the failure to include the above language does not and may not be deemed to invalidate any assessment levied by the district or the contract or instrument of conveyance of the real property.
