Whenever any school district lapses or is dissolved, which at the time of lapse or dissolution has any bonds or other obligations outstanding and unpaid, the county commission, county council or county legislature of the county, or if the district embraced territory in two or more counties then the county commission, county council or county legislature of the county in which the greater portion of the assessed valuation of the district lies, on or before the first day of May of each year, shall ascertain and certify to the county clerk or clerks, as the case may be, the rate of taxation necessary to be levied upon the taxable property within the former corporate limits or boundary lines of the district, sufficient to pay the interest on and the principal of bonds falling due during the succeeding year.
