54-40.4-08. Vested property - Rights of action - Actions saved
The adoption of any charter or amendment does not destroy any property, action, right of
action, claim, or demand of any nature vested in the county-city. All rights of action, claims, or
demands are preserved to the county-city, and to any persons asserting any claims against the
county-city as though the charter or amendment had not been adopted. The adoption of any
charter or amendment affects neither the right of the county-city to collect special assessments
previously levied under any law or charter for the purpose of public improvements, nor impairs
the obligation of any existing contract to which the county-city is a party.
