SECTION 4638-4640.6



4638.  Until the bonds are paid, or until there is a sum in the city
treasury set aside for the purpose, sufficient to meet all sums
coming due for the principal and interest on the bonds, the city
governing body shall, at the time of fixing, and in the manner
provided for the general city tax levy, levy and collect each year
upon the taxable property situated in the district, and upon that
property only, a tax sufficient to pay the interest on the bonds as
it falls due, and also such part of the principal as will become due
before the proceeds of a tax levied at the next general tax levy will
be available. However, if the maturity of the indebtedness created
by the issuance of the bonds, or any series of the bonds, is made to
begin more than two years after date of the bonds or such series, the
tax shall be levied and collected annually, sufficient to pay the
interest on the indebtedness as it falls due, and also to constitute
a sinking fund for the payment of the principal on or before
maturity.


4639.  The taxes required to be levied and collected by Section 4638
shall be in addition to all other taxes levied for city purposes and
in addition to the taxes levied pursuant to Section 4640. The
proceeds of such taxes shall be used for no purpose other than the
payment of the principal and interest due on the bonds or series of
the bonds.



4639.5.  Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 5400), Division 6, Title
1 of the Government Code shall apply to bonds issued pursuant to
this chapter, except that the proceeds referred to in Section 5404 of
the Government Code shall be used only for some purpose which is of
special benefit to the district including, but not limited to, the
payment of or reimbursement for such of the cost and expenses listed
in Section 4625 as have already been paid or incurred for the benefit
of the district and which could have been included in determining
the amount of bonds to be issued, or the payment of principal of or
interest on bonded indebtedness previously incurred on behalf of the
district.


4640.6.  The governing body of a city may, by a two-thirds vote,
require the owners of property within a district to pay a reasonable
fee for connecting to any sanitary sewer improvement acquired or
constructed pursuant to this chapter.
