Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
After the county auditor has available the data showing the total taxable valuation of a 
municipality, the auditor shall calculate the necessary tax rates to produce the sums called for in 
the final budget. If the auditor finds that any amount or amounts called for in the levy cannot be 
produced by a tax rate within the limitation prescribed by the laws of this state, the auditor shall 
reduce the amount so that it can be produced by a tax rate within legal limitations. The auditor 
shall extend the levy, including the levy for judgments against the municipality, upon the tax lists 
of the county for the current year against each description of real property and all personal 
property within the municipality in the same manner and with the same effect as other taxes are 
extended. The county auditor shall notify the governing body of the municipality at once of any 
reductions made in the levy.
