To levy and collect property taxes as provided in Section 20 [72-18-20 NMSA 1978] of the Flood Control District Act, the board shall determine each year the amount of money necessary to be raised by taxation, taking into consideration other sources of revenue of the district. The board shall fix a rate of levy, which, when levied upon every dollar of assessed valuation of taxable property within the district, together with other revenues, shall raise the amount required by the district annually to supply funds for paying expenses of organization and the costs of acquiring, improving, equipping, operating and maintaining any project or facility of the district, and promptly to pay in full, when due, all interest on and principal of bonds and other securities of the district. This tax shall be assessed and collected in the same manner, at the same time and with the same penalties as other property taxes.
