(1) When the governing authorities of any municipality shall have made the levy of municipal taxes by resolution, or for any other taxing district of which the municipality is a part by resolution, the clerk of the municipality shall thereupon immediately certify the same to the tax collector of the municipality, or such other taxing district of which the municipality may be a part.
(2) When a resolution levying ad valorem taxes has been finally adopted by the governing authorities of any municipality embracing, in whole or in part, any other taxing district of which such municipality is a part, the clerk of such municipality shall immediately certify a copy of such resolution to the State Tax Commission, as the law directs. The clerk shall have the resolution of the governing authorities making the levy printed within two (2) weeks after it is entered on the minutes of such governing authorities, and he shall furnish any taxpayer with a copy thereof, upon request. If a newspaper is published within such municipality, then such resolution shall be published in its entirety, at least one, within ten (10) days after its adoption. Instead of publishing the resolution in its entirety, the publication of the resolution may be made as provided in Section 21-17-19. If no newspaper be published within such municipality, then a copy of such resolution, in its entirety, shall be posted by such municipal clerk in at least three (3) public places in such municipality, within ten (10) days after its adoption.
(3) The clerk shall be liable on his bond for any damages sustained by his failure to comply with the requirements of this section. However, failure to thus publish or post the same shall not affect the validity of the levy.
