Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 33, § 7726. Service charges for mosquito control

A. A mosquito abatement district created under the provisions of this Chapter may levy and collect special taxes, including monthly service charges to customers of waterworks districts within the mosquito control district, to finance its programs. It may use legal, proper, necessary, and expedient means to collect and enforce the collection of such taxes, including the contracting with a waterworks district located within the same parish to collect a monthly service charge for mosquito control.

B. Any monthly service charge so levied shall be uniform upon the customers of the waterworks district, but each separate water meter or connection to the waterworks district's water supply lines shall be treated as a separate customer for purposes of the service charge. The waterworks district, acting as collection agency for special taxes of the mosquito abatement district, may add the tax levied by said mosquito abatement district to the water bills of its customers. On or before the tenth day of the month following the collection of the taxes, the waterworks district shall remit to the mosquito abatement district all funds collected for the purposes of mosquito control, less a small and reasonable service charge for administrative purposes of collection.
