After the effective date of this chapter, the taxes levied on
the taxable property in the development area each year by and for
the benefit of the State of Iowa, the City, the county, and any school
district or other taxing district in the development area is located,
shall be divided as follows:
A. That portion of the taxes which would be produced by the rate at
which the tax is levied each year by or for each of the taxing districts
upon the total sum of the assessed value of the taxable property in
the development area as defined in the legal description of the chapter,
as shown on the assessment roll as of January 1 of the calendar year
preceding the first calendar year in which the City certifies to the
county auditor the amount of loans, advances, indebtedness, or bonds
payable from the division of property tax revenue, shall be allocated
to and, when collected, be paid into the fund for the respective taxing
district into which all other property taxes are paid. However, the
City may choose to divide that portion of the taxes which would be
produced by levying the City's portion of the total tax rate levied
by or for the City upon the total sum of the assessed value of the
taxable property in the development area, as shown on the assessment
roll as of January 1 of the calendar year preceding the effective
date of the chapter, and, if the City so chooses, an affected taxing
entity may allow the City to divide that portion of the taxes which
would be produced by levying the affected taxing district's portion
of the total tax rate levied by or for the affected taxing entity
upon the total sum of the assessed value of the taxable property in
the development area, as shown on the assessment roll as of January
1 of the calendar year preceding the effective date of this chapter.
B. That portion of the taxes each year in excess of such amount shall
be allocated to and, when collected, be paid into a special fund of
the City to pay the principal of, and interest on, loans, monies advanced
to, or indebtedness, whether funded, refunded, assumed, or otherwise,
including bonds issued under the authority of Section 403.9(1) of
the Code of Iowa, incurred by the City to finance or refinance, in
whole or in part, projects in the development area, except that taxes
for the payment of bonds and interest of each taxing district may
be collected against all taxable property within the taxing district
without limitation by the provisions of this chapter. Unless and until
the total assessed valuation of the taxable property in the addition
to the development area exceeds the total assessed value of the taxable
property in such area is shown by the assessment roll referred to
in subsection A of this section, all of the taxes levied and collected
upon the taxable property in the development area shall be paid into
the funds for the respective taxing districts as taxes by or for the
taxing districts in the same manner as all other property taxes. When
such loans, advances, indebtedness, and bonds, if any, and interest
thereon, have been paid, all money thereafter received from taxes
upon the taxable property in the development area shall be paid into
the funds for the respective taxing districts in the same manner as
taxes on all other property.
C. The portion of taxes mentioned in subsection B of this section, and
the special fund into which that portion shall be paid, may be irrevocably
pledged by the City for the payment of the principal and interest
on loans, advances, bonds issued under the authority of Section 403.9(1)
of the Code of Iowa, or indebtedness incurred by the City to finance
or refinance, in whole or in part, projects in the development area.
D. As used in this section, the word "taxes" includes, but is not limited
to, all levies on an ad valorem basis upon land or real property.
