SEC. 3. And be it further enacted, That The Mayor and
Council of Salisbury is hereby authorized and empowered to
establish reasonable sewer rental or sewer service charges, col-

cipal and interest of the bonds hereinbefore authorized. In
any year that any of said bonds are outstanding, and any de-

sewer rental or service charges available for the payment of
the maturing principal and interest of said bonds, The Mayor
and Council of Salisbury shall levy upon all the assessable

penalties and in every respect be treated the same as other City
taxes now are. Said amount so levied and collected shall be
