     The court shall have power to wind down the affairs of the municipality, to dispose of its property as provided by law, and to make provisions for the payment of all indebtedness thereof and for the performance of its contracts and obligations, and shall order such taxes levied from time to time as may be requisite therefore, which the county legislative body shall levy against the property within the municipality. The taxes shall be collected by the county treasurer in the manner for collecting other property taxes and shall be paid out under the orders of the court, and the surplus, if any, shall be paid into the school fund for the district in which the taxes were levied. All municipal property remaining after the winding down of the affairs of the municipality, shall be transferred to the board of education of such school district, which board hereby is empowered to enforce all claims for the same and to have the use of all property so vesting.
