Sec. 6.709. Special Tax – Property Acquired by Public Entity Through Negotiated Transaction or by Gift or Devise – Voluntary Application of Special Tax.

   If property not otherwise exempt from a special tax levied pursuant to this Chapter is acquired by a public entity through a negotiated transaction, or by gift or devise, the special tax shall, notwithstanding Section 6.748, continue to be levied on the property acquired and shall be enforceable against the public entity that acquired the property.

   Any public agency other than a city, county or school district may subject property owned by it to the levy of special taxes, if it certifies to the Council: (a) its agreement to do so, (b) that it intends to dispose of the property by transfer to a nongovernmental agency at some time in the future, and (c) that it agrees to cooperate in the sale of the property if necessary to obtain funds to pay any special taxes levied upon the property.
