district shall be bound by the plan of financing set forth in the petition for the organization of the
subdistrict and approved by the decree of the district court. The appointment of appraisers shall
not be necessary in the event that the plan adopted provides that general obligations of the
subdistrict are to be issued or provides for the issuance of revenue warrants which shall be a lien
and charge upon the rental and income from the irrigation works or reservoirs or other
improvements to be constructed under the plan adopted and the rental derived from any such
works. Said warrants shall be payable in such denominations, with interest at a rate not
exceeding six percent per annum which may be fixed by the board of directors of said district
pursuant to the order and decree of the court. The board shall pledge the income and rentals from
said irrigation works or water supplied therethrough, and the subdistrict shall not be otherwise
obligated for the payment thereof.
(2) At the time said revenue warrants are issued, the board of directors of the district
shall make and enter in the minutes of the proceeding a resolution in which the due dates of said
revenue warrants, the amount of interest thereon, which shall not exceed six percent per annum,
the general provisions of said revenue warrants and a recital that the same are payable out of
rental and income only are set forth and shall require the payment of an assessment or annual
rental charge by the persons who are to use or derive benefit from the water or other service
furnished through said improvements or works, sufficient to meet said payments, and the
resolution shall be irrepealable during the time that any of said revenue warrants are outstanding
and unpaid. Said revenue warrants shall be signed "Water Users' Association No. .... in the
Southwestern Water Conservation District, By ...., President, Attest ...., Secretary", or "Special
Improvement District No. .... in the Southwestern Water Conservation District, By ...., President,
Attest ...., Secretary". They shall be countersigned by the treasurer.
(3) General obligation bonds of said subdistrict shall be signed in the same manner as
provided for revenue warrants and shall recite that the same are issued pursuant to the provisions
of this article and are to be payable at the time and in the manner and with the rate of interest
therein specified, and that the same were issued under and pursuant to a decree of court and a
resolution of the board of directors authorizing the issue of said obligations and referring to the
date of said resolution. Said bonds shall further recite that they are payable from funds to be
derived by assessments and tax levies against the property in said subdistrict and not otherwise,
and that the same are not to be deemed as an obligation of the southwestern water conservation
district but only as an obligation of said subdistrict, and that the district itself is not to be
obligated in any manner for the payment of said bonds.
