(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) All property taxes and assessments under this article 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) 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.
