§ 403. Assessment procedure
Annually, on or before January 20 preceding the fiscal year, the Treasurer of the
District shall issue and present a warrant to the legislative body of each member
municipality requiring that the amount of such assessment, if any, be paid to him
or her in accordance with the schedule of payments adopted by the Board of Supervisors.
The legislative body of each member municipality shall draw an order on the municipal
treasury for the amount of such assessment and the municipal Treasurer shall pay to
the District Treasurer the amount of such order in accordance with the schedule for
payments adopted by the Board of Supervisors. If any member municipality shall fail
to pay when due any assessment against it by the District, it shall incur the maximum
penalty allowed by law plus interest at the maximum rate allowed by law. Such penalty
and interest, together with the amount due, court costs, and reasonable attorney’s
fees of the District may be recovered by the District in a civil action under this
section, notwithstanding the availability of any other remedy available to the District.
