164.011. Annual estimate of required funds, tax rates required, criteria for exceptions — estimates, where sent — department duties. —
1. The school board of each district annually shall prepare an estimate of the amount of money to be raised by taxation for the ensuing school year, the rate required to produce the amount, and the rate necessary to sustain the school or schools of the district for the ensuing school year, to meet principal and interest payments on the bonded debt of the district and to provide the funds to meet other legitimate district purposes. In preparing the estimate, the board shall have sole authority in determining what part of the total authorized rate shall be used to provide revenue for each of the funds as authorized by section 165.011. Prior to setting tax rates for the teachers' and incidental funds, the school board of each school district annually shall set the tax rate for the capital projects fund as necessary to meet the expenditures of the capital projects fund after all transfers allowed pursuant to subsection 4 of section 165.011. Furthermore the tax rate set in the capital projects fund shall not require the reduction of the equalized combined tax rates for the teachers' and incidental funds to be less than the greater of the minimum operating levy for the current year for school purposes established under subsection 2 of section 163.021.
2. The school board of each district shall forward the estimate to the county clerk on or before September first. In school districts divided by county lines, the estimate shall be forwarded to the proper officer of each county in which any part of the district lies.
3. When revising its tax rate each year, the aggregate increase in the valuation of property assessed by the state tax commission for the current year over that of the previous year shall be considered new construction and improvement.
4. The department of elementary and secondary education and any other government agency involved in the tax rate process shall update the necessary forms, reports, and documents in order to implement the provisions of this section.

For the purpose of providing funds for the acquisition, construction, erection, equipment and furnishing of dormitory or of school athletic stadiums or structures, and for providing a site therefor, including offstreet parking space, and making from time to time enlargements or extensions thereof, the board of directors of any seven-director school district may issue and sell revenue bonds in an amount not to exceed the estimated cost of the dormitory or project, including costs necessarily incidental thereto. No such bonds shall be issued and sold unless at the time of the issuance thereof the board of the school district issuing them shall pledge the net income and revenues of the dormitory or project to the payment of the bonds, both principal and interest, and covenant to fix, maintain and collect such reasonable rates, rentals and charges for admission of spectators to witness such games, contests and exhibitions, and returns and charges for concessions and broadcasting as in the judgment of such board of directors will provide revenues sufficient to pay the reasonable cost of operating and maintaining such dormitory or project and to provide and maintain an interest and sinking fund in an amount adequate promptly to pay the principal of and interest on such bonds. Nothing herein shall prevent the board from authorizing use of the dormitory or project and admittance thereto without charge at such time and for such occasions and to such extent as the board determines. In addition to pledging the net income and revenues as herein provided, the board in its discretion may mortgage, by mortgage or deed of trust, the real and personal property comprising the dormitory or project or portions thereof for the payment of the bonds, both principal and interest, and as additional security therefor may by the terms of the mortgage or deed of trust grant to the purchaser in case of foreclosure sale thereof the right and privilege to operate the dormitory or project, subject to the limitations and conditions set out in the mortgage or deed of trust. The revenue bonds are payable, both as to principal and interest, solely and only out of the net income and revenues arising from the operation of the dormitory or project for which they were issued, after providing for the costs of operation and maintenance as aforesaid, or from other funds made available to the school district from sources other than from proceeds of taxation, or from proceeds of foreclosure sale of property mortgaged or pledged as security therefor.

If a check issued by any school district in this state is lost or destroyed and satisfactory proof of the loss or destruction is made to the board of the school district which has issued the check, and the depositary upon which the check was drawn certifies that the check has not been presented for payment, the board of the district may cause to be issued a duplicate check of like number, date and amount, in favor of the payee named in the original check.

Any municipal corporation or other political subdivision of the state to which, or to whose fiscal officer, any original lost or destroyed school check was payable, pursuant to resolution of its governing body, may execute the bond, and in such cases the bond may be accepted without surety or other security.
