EDUCATION CODESECTION 15410-15414
15410. The board of supervisors of the county in which the county superintendent of schools has jurisdiction over a school district or community college district in which a school facilities improvement district is located shall annually at the time of making the levy of taxes for county purposes levy a tax for that year upon the property in the school facilities improvement district for the interest and redemption of all outstanding bonds of the district. The tax shall not be less than sufficient to pay the interest on the bonds as it becomes due and to provide a sinking fund for the payment of the principal on or before maturity and may include an allowance for an annual reserve, established for the purpose of avoiding fluctuating tax levies. The tax shall be sufficient to provide funds for the payment of the interest on the bonds as it becomes due and also that part of the principal and interest as is to become due before the proceeds of a tax levied at the time for making the next general tax levy can be made available for the payment of the principal and interest. 15411. All taxes levied, when collected, shall be paid into the county treasury of the county whose superintendent of schools has jurisdiction over the school district or community college district in which the school facilities improvement district is located and on behalf of which the tax was levied. All collected tax revenues shall be used exclusively for the payment of the principal and interest of the bonds of the school facilities improvement district, including any sinking fund. 15412. The board of supervisors of the county whose superintendent of schools has jurisdiction over the school district or community college district in which the school facilities improvement district is located, shall annually at the time of making the levy of taxes for county purposes estimate the amount of money required to meet the payment of the principal and interest on bonds of the district authorized by the electors of the district and not sold, and that the governing board of the school district or community college district informs the board on their belief will be sold before the next tax levy, and the board of supervisors shall levy a tax sufficient to pay the principal and interest so estimated. 15413. If the bonds are declared invalid or are not issued for any reason, the tax levied and collected shall be retained in the interest and sinking fund of the school facilities improvement district to meet the interest and principal falling due on the bonds. If the school facilities improvement district has no bonds outstanding the proceeds of the tax levy shall be transferred to the general fund of the school district in which the improvement district is located on the order of the auditor. 15414. This article shall apply only to general obligation bonds issued for one or more purposes specified in Section 15302 and approved by two-thirds of the votes cast by the voters voting on the proposition.
