75390. The board may at any time call an election and submit to the qualified electors of the district the question whether a special assessment shall be levied for the purpose of raising money to be applied to any of the purposes of this division. 75391. The election shall be called upon the notice prescribed in, and shall be held and the result thereof determined and declared in all respects in conformity with, the provisions of Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 74090) of Part 2 of this division. 75392. The notice of election shall specify the amount of money proposed to be raised and the purpose or purposes for which it is intended to be used, and it may state that the assessment shall be levied in two, three, four, or not to exceed 40 annual installments and specify the amount of the installment to be levied in each year. 75393. At the election the ballots shall contain the words "Assessment--Yes" or "Assessment--No," or words equivalent thereto. 75394. If a majority of the votes cast are "Assessment--Yes," the board shall at the time of the annual estimate under Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 75350) of this part, include in the estimate the amount voted, or if the notice of election has provided for levying the special assessment in annual installments, the board shall, at the time of the annual estimate in each of the years specified in the notice include in the estimate the amount of the installment provided in the notice to be raised in that year. 75395. The special assessment shall be levied as generally provided in Chapters 1 (commencing with Section 75350) and 2 (commencing with Section 75370) of this part and when collected shall be paid to the treasurer for the purpose or purposes specified in the notice of election. 75396. If the provisions of Section 74056 are complied with in the formation of a district so that all bonds of the district and of any improvement district created therein are payable from assessments levied upon all real property within the district or improvement district, as the case may be, special assessments may be levied upon all real property within the district in the manner provided in this chapter for the levy of special assessments upon land only. In such case, the resolution of the board and the notice of election shall each contain a statement that the special assessment will be levied upon all real property within the district.
