It states that the maintenance, enlargement and extension of diking, drainage and sewerage improvement districts is essential to the public welfare and economy of the state.

Among others, the Chapter provides for property roll, its basis and requisites, separate levies for prior indebtedness; public hearing, notice, publication; written objections, filing, grounds, waiver; reexamination of properties on roll, adjustment, periodic revision, of valuations; roll constitutes valuations against which levy made and collected, hearing on adjustments; roll and proceedings conclusive, and remedies; review by superior court as to how taken; levy is for continuous benefits to protected property; annual estimate of costs, levy added to general taxes, delinquencies, disposition of revenue; emergency expenditures, warrants; and concurrent use of other methods of raising revenue.
