subject to any limitation and shall be excluded in computing amounts subject to any limitation on
tax levies.
    Subd. 2. Particular area. In the case where a particular area within the district, but not the
entire district, is benefited by a system, works, or facilities of the district, the board, after holding
a public hearing as provided by law for levying assessments on benefited property, shall by
ordinance establish such area as a taxing subdistrict, to be designated by number, and shall levy
special taxes on all the taxable property therein, to be accounted for separately and used only
for the purpose of paying the cost of construction, improvement, acquisition, maintenance, or
operation of such system, works, or facilities, or paying the principal and interest on bonds issued
