243.360. Drainage tax — collector to furnish bond. — 1. It shall be the duty of the collector of revenue of each county in which lands or other property of any drainage district organized under this chapter are situate, to receive the drainage tax book each year and he shall promptly and faithfully collect the tax therein set out and to exercise all due diligence in so doing.
2. He shall demand and collect such taxes at the same time that he demands and collects state and county taxes due on the same lands and other properties. Where any tract or part thereof has been divided and sold or transferred, the collector shall receive taxes on any part of any tract, piece or parcel of land or other property, charged with such taxes and give his receipt accordingly. The drainage tax book shall be the warrant and authority of the collector for making such demand and collection. The collector shall pay over and account for all moneys collected thereon each year to the county treasurer at the time he pays over state and county taxes.
3. The collector shall give bond payable to the drainage district for the probable amount of all drainage taxes to be collected in any one year conditioned for the faithful performance of all his duties in accordance with this chapter. Such bond shall be signed by at least two residents of the county or by a surety company authorized to transact business in the state. The bond shall be approved by the county commission and the premium, if any, may be paid out of any funds belonging to the district.
