72-3347. Same; no-fund warrants or tax levies to purchase textbooks. To provide revenue for the initial purchase of textbooks for use in the textbook rental plan, the board of education of any school district is authorized to issue no-fund warrants in an amount necessary to make such purchase. Such no-fund warrants shall be issued in the manner and form, bear interest and be redeemed as prescribed by K.S.A. 79-2940, and amendments thereto, except that they may be issued without the approval of the state board of tax appeals.

Whenever no-fund warrants are issued under the authority of this act, the board of education shall make a tax levy at the first tax levying period after such warrants are issued, sufficient to pay such warrants and the interest thereon, except that in lieu of making only one tax levy, such board, if it deems it advisable, may make a tax levy each year for not to exceed three years in approximately equal installments for the purpose of paying such warrants and the interest thereon. All such tax levies shall be in addition to all other levies authorized or limited by law and none of the tax limitations provided by law shall apply to such levy.
