WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor
Ch. 738
(h) The county treasurer shall report to the board of managers, at regular
intervals, whatever amounts he may have collected as drainage taxes during such periods,
with a list showing the amount received from each taxable. The board of managers shall
order all such moneys to be paid by the county treasurer for the redemption of the bonds
or notes issued and the interest thereon.
(i) If any instalment of principal and/or interest represented by the said bonds or
notes shall not be paid at the time and in the manner the same shall become due and
payable, and such default shall continue for a period of six months, the holder or holders
of such bond or note or bonds or notes in default shall have a right of action against the
board of managers. The circuit court of the county may issue a writ of mandamus against
the board of managers, directing the levying of a tax or special assessment against the
taxables in default, and the collection of the same, in such sum as may be necessary to
meet any unpaid instalments of principal and interest and the costs of the action. The
amount of the tax or special assessment shall be certified by the board of managers to the
county treasurer, who shall proceed immediately to collect the same from the taxables so
in default, according to the procedure provided in §§ [81 — 84] 87, 89, 90, AND 93 of this
article, and when such sums have been collected the county treasurer shall, upon order of
the board of managers, pay the said unpaid instalments of principal and interest in
default and the costs of the action. The official bonds of the county treasurer and the
other officers shall be liable for the faithful performance of the duties assigned to them
under this subtitle. The holder or holders of any bond or note or bonds or notes in default
are hereby authorized to institute suit against any officer on his official bond for failing to
perform any of the duties required of him pursuant to this section.
84.
Should the lands in the public drainage association be located in two or more
counties, the board of managers shall prepare a separate drainage tax roll for each
county. They shall send such tax rolls to the clerk of the board of county commissioners
for the county in which the drainage association was organized. The procedure shall be as
provided for in § [81] 87, except that the county commissioners shall certify the drainage
tax rolls for the other counties to the respective boards of county commissioners for the
other counties, who shall in turn certify them to the respective county treasurers for
action as provided for in § [81] 87. All moneys collected in the several counties in
pursuance hereof shall be paid over to the county treasurer of the county in which the
drainage association was organized, and shall be placed to the credit of the drainage
association.
87.
(a) All drainage improvements constructed under §§ 52 through [95] 102 of this
article shall be under the control and supervision of the county board of managers. It shall
be the duty of the board to keep the drainage improvements in good repair IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AN APPROVED OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PLAN.
