(a) The board of commissioners of the Johnson county park and recreation
district is hereby authorized to contract in the name of the district
with any agency or instrumentality of the United States for furnishing,
constructing, equipping, operating, managing or maintaining recreational
areas and facilities on or around any federal reservoir, all or any part
of which is located within the boundaries of said district. Said board
may obligate the district for the reimbursement of any such federal
agency or instrumentality for obligations incurred pursuant to such
contract, but not to exceed an amount equal to
15% of the assessed valuation of the tangible property within the district,
plus any interest thereon not exceeding the maximum rate of interest
prescribed by K.S.A. 10-1009, and amendments thereto. Such contract for
reimbursement
may extend over such period of years as is permissible under applicable
federal laws and regulations and as shall be agreed to by the board of
commissioners, but not to exceed 50 years.
For the purpose of financing such reimbursement, said board of
commissioners is hereby authorized to levy an annual tax of not to
exceed two mills on all the taxable tangible property of the
district during the period of said reimbursement contract, if the levy
of such tax has been approved by the electors of the district in the
manner provided in K.S.A. 19-2881b, and amendments thereto.
The powers granted to the board by this section may be exercised in
addition to or in conjunction with any other powers vested in the board
pursuant to law.
