  title and to reimburse the town for any moneys that it may have advanced
  to the authority, the town board shall determine  the  amount  of  money
  necessary  to  be  raised  for such purpose, and shall levy a tax on the
  territory of the district located within the town and upon  the  several
  parcels  of  real  estate  in the district located within the town in an
  amount sufficient to produce  the  amount  necessary  to  be  raised  as
  aforesaid;  provided  that such tax shall not be levied to pay any bonds
  of the authority unless the authority with the consent of the town board
  has pledged such tax prior to the issuance of such bonds. Such tax shall
  be levied and apportioned upon such territory located  within  the  town
  and  collected  from  the several parcels of real estate in the district
  located within the town in like manner as other town taxes. It is hereby
  determined that the liability imposed upon the territory included in the
  district located within the town is based upon the  special  benefit  to
  such  territory  accruing under this title and that the tax to be levied
  because of such liability and in proportion to the taxable value of real
  estate in such territory will be in proportion to such benefits.
