SECTION 49140-49144
49140. At least 15 days before the first day of the month in which the board of supervisors of the county in which the district is situated is required by law to levy the amount of taxes required for county purposes, the district board shall furnish the board of supervisors and county auditor of the county an estimate in writing of the amount of money necessary for district's purposes during the next ensuing fiscal year. The county tax collector shall collect the district taxes at the same time and in the same manner as the county taxes are collected. Unless the governing board has designated any depository pursuant to Section 49131, all money collected for district purposes shall be paid into the county treasury and paid out on warrants of the county auditor drawn on the county treasurer, upon order of the district board. The amount of money necessary for the district's purposes may include a cash-basis fund. 49141. The district board may also include in its estimate prepared pursuant to Section 49140 an unappropriated reserve to cover expenditures that have not been provided for, or that have been insufficiently provided for, or for unforeseen requirements. The money in any unappropriated reserve fund so established may be made available for appropriation by a four-fifths vote of the members of the district board at any regular or special meeting of which all members have had reasonable notice. In addition, the district board may further provide, by resolution, for transfers or revisions of unencumbered funds within the general district expenditures provided for during any fiscal year where, in the opinion of the district board, the transfer or revision is necessary for purposes of the district. 49142. The board of supervisors of the county in which the district is situated shall, at the time of levying county taxes, levy a tax to be known as the "____ garbage and refuse disposal district tax," sufficient to raise the amount reported to it by the district board, upon property of the district in the county. The board of supervisors shall determine the rate of the tax by deducting 5 percent for anticipated delinquencies from the total assessed value of the taxable property of the district within the county as it appears on the assessment roll of the county, and then dividing the sum reported to it by the district board by the remainder of the total assessed value. 49143. For purposes of the district, the board of supervisors shall levy a tax of not more than fifteen cents ($0.15) on each one hundred dollars ($100) of taxable property of the district in the county. 49144. The district board may establish and maintain a cash-basis fund for the purpose of defraying district expenses between the beginning of a fiscal year and the time of distribution of tax receipts in a fiscal year. The cash-basis fund shall not exceed 60 percent of the estimated expenditures for a fiscal year.
