Section 1. Section 35-458, Arizona Revised Statutes, is amended to read:
35-458. Levy of tax for payment of interest and bonds
A. After the bonds are issued, the governing body or board shall enter upon on its minutes a record of the bonds sold, and their numbers and dates, and shall annually levy and cause to be collected a tax, at the same time and in the same manner as other taxes are levied and collected upon on all taxable property in such political subdivision, that shall not exceed an amount sufficient to pay the annual interest on the bonds when due, and shall likewise annually levy a tax sufficient to redeem the bonds when they mature. The annual levy for both the principal and interest payment, including a reasonable tax delinquency factor determined by the county treasurer, shall not exceed the amount necessary to make the annual payment.
B. Monies derived from the levy of the tax when collected shall constitute a fund for payment of interest and the bonds. The fund shall be kept separately and shall be known as the "interest fund" and "redemption fund."
Sec. 2. Section 35-474, Arizona Revised Statutes, is amended to read:
35-474. Levy of tax for payment of bonds
The board of supervisors, on behalf of the county or a school district therein, or the governing body or board of a municipal corporation, which has issued refunding bonds shall, during each year in which the bonds are outstanding, levy a tax on all property in the political subdivision for which the bonds are issued, that does not exceed an amount sufficient to pay the annual interest on all bonds then outstanding and the annual installment of the principal thereof becoming due and payable in the next ensuing year. The annual levy for both the principal and interest payment, including a reasonable tax delinquency factor determined by the county treasurer, shall not exceed the amount necessary to meet the annual payment. Such taxes shall be levied, assessed and collected at the same time and in the same manner as other taxes are levied, assessed and collected. The proceeds of the taxes shall be kept in a special fund and shall be used only for the purpose for which collected.
