 The interest accruing on such refunding bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of this part 7 prior to the time when the proceeds of tax levies are available therefor shall be paid out of the general revenues or any other revenues of the county available therefor.

As collected, all taxes levied for payment of interest on and for the payment or redemption of the principal of such bonds shall be kept by the treasurer of the county in a special fund, to be used only in the payment of the interest upon and for the payment or redemption of the principal of such bonds. Such tax shall be levied and collected in the same manner as other county taxes are levied and collected. The ordinance authorizing the issuance of said bonds shall set forth the years in which such taxes shall be levied for the creation of said fund.   History.
