The opinion

SIMMS, Justice,

concurring in part, dissenting in part:

I would affirm the trial court in all respects. The use of sinking funds to pay for revaluation costs is beyond the limits placed on those funds by Art. 10, § 28. Additionally, I agree with Justice Wilson that the majority’s authorization of this payment from sinking fund revenues is not rendered permissible by its depiction of the obligation as now being a “judgment”. That rationale is illusory and unconvincing.
