7-13-233. Procedure to collect service charge. (1) The service charge may be imposed for:
     (a) any fiscal year for which the district establishes a budget or incurs costs related to planning or constructing a solid waste management facility; or
     (b) services to begin within 12 months.
     (2) The board shall certify to the county commissioners of the county served by the solid waste management district the service charge needed for the current fiscal year, the due but unpaid service charges, and a description of the property against which the service charges are to be levied.
     (3) The department of revenue shall ensure that the amount of the service charge is placed on property tax notices and that the service charge is collected with property taxes.
     (4) The board may establish a system for collecting service charges other than by tax notices to property owners issued by the department of revenue. The board may collect the service charge more often than property taxes are collected.
     (5) If not paid, the service charge becomes delinquent and becomes a lien on the property, subject to the same penalties and the same rate of interest as property taxes.
