(1) The district has no power
of taxation or right to levy or assess taxes pursuant to section 37-50-109, except an annual levy.
The district has no power to contract or incur any obligation or indebtedness except as expressly
provided in this article.
(2) Before July 1, 2024, all property taxes and assessments under this article 50 shall be
collected by the county treasurers of the respective counties in which real estate is situated at the
same time and in the same manner as is provided by law for the collection of taxes for county
and state purposes, and, if the assessments are not paid, the real estate shall be sold at regular tax
sales for the payment of the assessments, interest, and penalties in the manner provided by the
laws of this state for selling property for the payment of general taxes. If there are no bids at the
tax sales for the property so offered, the tax certificates shall be issued in the name of the
district; and the board has the same power with reference to the sale of the tax certificates as is
now vested in county commissioners and county treasurers when a tax certificate is issued in the
name of a county.
(3) Before July 1, 2024, tax deeds may be issued, based upon the certificates of sale, in
the same manner that deeds are executed on tax sales on general state and county taxes.
(4) Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, on or after July 1, 2024, the district or a
county treasurer shall follow the procedures established in article 11.5 of title 39 and shall not
follow the procedures established in this section or article 11 of title 39 concerning the sale or
striking off of property to the district or the issuance of a certificate of sale or tax deed.
Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, on or after July 1, 2024, a lot or parcel of land shall not
be struck off to the district and a tax certificate or tax deed shall not be issued pursuant to this
section or article 11 of title 39 to the extent such actions would be inconsistent with the
requirements of article 11.5 of title 39.
