WY Stat § 16-5-116 (1997 through Reg Sess) What's This?

The governing body shall cause to be levied annually, without limitation of rate or amount, upon all taxable property of the issuer, in addition to other authorized taxes, a sufficient sum to pay the principal of and interest on the refunding public securities until the refunding public securities issued pursuant to this act are fully paid. The governing body may apply any other funds that are in the treasury of the issuer and available for payment of the interest or principal as it respectively matures, and the levy or levies provided for may be diminished. Should the tax for the payment of the principal and interest on any refunding public security at any time not be levied or collected in time to meet the payment, or if the refunding public securities are issued at a time which makes it impossible to levy a tax for the initial installments of principal or interest, the principal or interest so maturing shall be paid out of the general fund of the issuer, or from any other funds available for that purpose. For the purpose of reimbursing the fund or funds the money so used may be repaid from the first monies collected from taxes thereafter levied. The full faith and credit of the issuer shall be pledged for the punctual payment of the principal and interest on the refunding public securities. If the public securities to be refunded and the interest accruing would have been paid from taxes levied upon only part of the taxable property within the boundaries of the issuer, the taxes levied for payment or redemption of the refunding public securities, and the interest accruing shall be levied in the same manner and upon only the same taxable property as would have been levied for the payment of the public securities to be refunded if no refunding of the public securities had been accomplished. Any tax levied to retire any refunding public security issued by a hospital district is subject to the limitations set forth in W.S. 35-2-414, provided any refunding securities issued under this act to refund local improvement bonds shall be payable solely from and secured by the pledge of special assessments under W.S. 15-6-401 through 15-6-448.
