ASSESSMENTS; EXEMPTION.

(a) The district may impose an assessment on property in the district, including an assessment on commercial, industrial, or office property, only in the manner provided by Subchapter A, Chapter 372, Local Government Code, or Subchapter F, Chapter 375, Local Government Code, for a municipality, county, or public improvement district, according to the benefit received by the property.

(b) An assessment on property must be for the limited purpose of providing capital funding for:

(1) public water and wastewater facilities;

(2) drainage and storm-water facilities;

(3) streets and alleys; and

(4) any authorized purpose under Chapter 372, Local Government Code.

(c) An assessment, a reassessment, or an assessment resulting from an addition to or correction of the assessment roll by the district, penalties and interest on an assessment or reassessment, an expense of collection, and reasonable attorney's fees incurred by the district:

(1) are a first and prior lien against the property assessed; and

(2) are superior to any other lien or claim other than a lien or claim for county, school district, or municipal ad valorem taxes.
