For the purpose of paying such bonds and the interest thereon, the board of directors of any district issuing bonds under this article is authorized to levy ad valorem taxes on all taxable land within the district. Such taxes shall be certified, extended, and collected at the same time and in the same manner as other irrigation district taxes or assessments, and the revenue laws of the state of Colorado relating to the levy, collection, and enforcement of general taxes, the sale of property for the nonpayment of general taxes, and the rights of redemption shall apply, as nearly as may be, to such irrigation district taxes. The lien of irrigation district taxes levied pursuant to the provisions of sections 37-43-132 to 37-43-138 shall be on a parity with the lien of general taxes, and no sale of land for the nonpayment of general taxes shall extinguish the lien of irrigation district taxes levied to pay the principal of or the interest on any bonds issued under this part 1. In the event that the amount of taxes collected in any year is not sufficient to pay the principal of or interest on bonds due and payable in such year, the deficit shall be made up in the next annual levy.
