Otherwise said bonds shall be in such denominations and become due at such dates, with interest at such rate, payable either annually or semiannually, but not exceeding the rate of six percent per annum, and contain such other provisions as may be fixed by the board of directors, if said provisions are not inconsistent with the terms of this article. Except as otherwise expressly modified in this article, the law relating to the form and issuance of bonds of conservancy districts under the laws of this state, particularly section 37-5-106, shall apply and govern officers of the district in the issuance and sale of said bonds, and other provisions of said law with respect to the levy of assessments for the payment of said bonds with interest, and particularly section 37-5-110, shall likewise be applicable to the bonds of a subdistrict organized under this article.
