Each county in which any of the area of a district is located shall pay its proportionate share of the cost of the district, based on the ratio which that part of the population of such district residing in the county bears to the total population of the district. Such cost shall be paid from the county treasury, but shall not exceed the equivalent of one (1) mill on each dollar of valuation in the district.

C. Such cost shall include so much of the following as is not paid from revenues of the district:
1. All operating and maintenance expenses necessary or desirable for the prudent conduct of affairs of the district and the principal of and interest on the obligations issued or assumed by the district in the performance of the purposes for which it was organized; and
2. Adequate reserves for the retirement of indebtedness, maintenance and other purposes necessary and expedient to meeting all obligations of the district.
D. Any revenue received by the district shall be devoted, first, to the payment of operating and maintenance expenses and the principal and interest on outstanding obligations and, thereafter, to such reserves for improvements, retirement of indebtedness, new construction, depreciation and contingencies as the board of directors may from time to time prescribe.
