145A.14 BUDGET FOR OPERATION.
The board shall prepare an annual budget designating the proposed
expenditures for operation of the area hospital and payment of bonded
indebtedness, and the amount to be raised by taxation, following the
requirements of chapter 24. The board shall prorate the amount to be
raised for operations by local taxation among the respective
political subdivisions forming a part of the merged area in the
proportion that the product of the value of taxable property and the
maximum tax levy rate in each political subdivision bears to the
total product of the value of taxable property and the maximum tax
levy rate in the entire merged area, as set out in the published
order of merger. The board of hospital trustees shall certify the
amount so determined to the respective levying officials of the
affected counties, and the officials shall levy a tax sufficient to
raise the annual budget. Taxes collected pursuant to the levy shall
be paid by the respective county treasurers to the treasurer of the
area hospital in the same manner that school taxes are paid to local
school districts. Section History: Early Form
