  1  2 amended to read as follows:
  1  3    2.  In lieu of subsection 1, a benefited fire district that

  1  5 certify an annual tax levy not exceeding forty sixty and one-
  1  6 half cents per thousand dollars of assessed valuation of the
  1  7 taxable property within the city for the purpose of fire
  1  8 protection.  The benefited fire district shall certify the tax
  1  9 levy as provided in this subsection only after agreement

  1 11 tax rate levied under this subsection shall reduce by an equal
  1 12 amount the maximum tax levy authorized for the general fund of
  1 13 that city under section 384.1.  If the district levies
  1 14 directly against property within a city to provide fire
  1 15 protection for that city, the city shall not be responsible
  1 16 for providing fire protection as provided in section 364.16,
  1 17 and shall have no liability for the method, manner, or means
  1 18 in which the district provides the fire protection.
