CHAPTER 13 - SCHOOL FINANCE
21-13-703. Limits on indebtedness.


WY Stat § 21-13-703 (through 2012) What's This?

Each school district actually and physically operating within its boundaries a school shall have a limit on outstanding indebtedness of ten percent (10%) of the assessed value of the taxable property therein. Nothing in this section shall be construed as permitting any combination of school districts embracing common territory to incur a bonded indebtedness of more than ten percent (10%) of the assessed value of the taxable property therein. The amount in any sinking fund available for the payment of outstanding indebtedness may be deducted for the purpose of computing the debt-incurring power of such district. For this purpose, any general assessment for a particular district shall become effective when the county assessor shall have received notice from the state board of equalization of its final approval of the county valuations; provided, however, that if the county assessor receives such notice after the district has entered into an enforceable contract for the sale of bonds, a new lower assessed valuation shall not become effective until the day following the date of delivery of such bonds.
