Notwithstanding the provisions of any special or general act, the board of directors of any levee district, drainage district, or levee and drainage district collecting taxes and assessments by special collectors may, by resolution adopted by a majority of the directors, change such method of collection and direct that the amount of taxes levied and assessed by the district shall annually be extended upon the tax books of the county or counties within which the lands so assessed and taxed are located and annually collected by the tax collectors in each county or counties along with the other taxes. Upon the adoption of that resolution, the clerk and tax collector of each county shall be charged with the duty of extending and collecting the annual tax and assessment levied by the districts.
