AMENDED BY AMENDMENT 64.
WHEREAS, the certified property tax levy of the District for

WHEREAS, preservation of the assets of the District is
dependent upon their maintenance and repair performed by

WHEREAS, in order to properly provide for said maintenance

Ten Cents ($.10) per One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) of assessed
valuation (based on One Hundred Percent (100%) of true and fair
value) to provide Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000.00) for the

WHEREAS, the Constitution and Laws of the State of Washington

SECTION 3. The Board of Commissioners of Whatcom County
