Whenever the board deems it necessary for the district to incur a revenue bonded indebtedness for the acquisition, construction, development, joint development, operation, maintenance, completion, or repair of any or all improvements, works, property, or facilities authorized by this part or necessary or convenient for the carrying out of the powers of the district, or for any other purpose authorized by this part, including, without limitation, the refunding referred to in Chapter 8 (commencing with Section 31000), the board shall provide for the issuance of the revenue bonds in accordance with the Revenue Bond Law of 1941 (Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 54300) of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code), as it now exists or may hereafter be amended; except that, (a) if the board provides for the issuance of the revenue bonds by ordinance adopted by a vote of two-thirds of all the members of the board, which ordinance shall be subject to referendum, and (b) no election is required by Section 30932, no election need be called or held for the purpose of authorizing the issuance of the revenue bonds. Revenue bonds may include one or more purposes; and the purposes for which revenue bonds may be issued may include, without limitation, all costs and estimated costs incidental to, or connected with, the accomplishment of that purpose, or purposes, including, without limitation, engineering, inspection, legal, fiscal agents, financial consultant, and other fees, bond and other reserve funds, working capital, bond interest estimated to accrue during the construction period and for a period not to exceed three years thereafter, and expenses of all proceedings for the authorization, issuance, and sale of the bonds.

The district is hereby declared to be a local agency within the meaning of the Revenue Bond Law of 1941. The term "enterprise" as used in the Revenue Bond Law of 1941 shall for all purposes of this part include any or all improvements, works, property or facilities, authorized by this part or necessary or convenient for the carrying out of the powers of the district.
