Sections 37-43-124 to 37-43-131 shall be liberally construed to carry out the intent and purpose, and nothing in this article shall be held to curtail or abridge the powers of the district officers, the boards of county commissioners, or the revenue officers of the state in the assessment, levy, or collection of irrigation district taxes, or in any other particular. All such powers are expressly retained and, in addition thereto, such officers have all powers necessary or proper to enable them to fully carry out the provisions of sections 37-43-124 to 37-43-131. The procedure provided in this article shall not be deemed to affect any liens for unpaid taxes or assessments which have been duly levied and assessed, existing at the time of the filing of the petition in the district court; but nothing in sections 37-43-124 to 37-43-131 or in the procedure therein provided shall be construed in any manner to either impair, enlarge, or give additional rights or powers to the holders of bonds or other evidences of district indebtedness. The board of directors of the district has the right to sell or otherwise dispose of any of the personal property of the district in the ordinary course of business, and nothing in sections 37-43-124 to 37-43-131 shall be taken or held to interfere with such right.
