§ 9040 District Assessment Payment Warrants

Key Takeaways

  • •Some special areas (like places that control water or drainage) can use their own special money papers (called warrants) to pay for certain taxes on land.
  • •This only works if the land is in one of these special areas and has a specific tax (assessment number 6) from a big project (project number 6).
  • •The special money papers must be from the same big project (project number 6) to pay the tax.

Example

Imagine a town has a special tax for a big project to stop flooding. The town has some special money papers (like IOUs) from that project.

The town can use those special money papers to pay the flooding tax for land in the town instead of using regular money.
