The taxes as levied shall also include such additional amounts to the extent that the collections in the prior years were insufficient to pay and discharge such principal thereof at maturity, such sinking fund installments, if any, and interest thereon as it fell due and the amount so collected shall be placed in the debt service reserve fund.

Any such resolution shall be in force upon its adoption.

All proceeds from such levy shall be deposited by each county collector directly in the debt service funds established pursuant to Section 34A-504 hereof and shall be applied solely for the payment of principal of and sinking fund installments and interest on the Bonds and shall not be used for any other purpose.
