37648
. (a) The local agency may provide for the issuance of the
bonds of the local agency for the purpose of refunding any bonds of
the local agency then outstanding, including the payment of any
redemption premiums thereof and any interest accrued or to accrue to
the earliest or subsequent date of redemption, purchase, or maturity
of such bonds, and, if deemed advisable by the local agency, for the
additional purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of
additional historical rehabilitation.
(b) The proceeds of bonds issued for the purpose of refunding any
outstanding bonds may, in the discretion of the local agency, be
applied to the purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption of
such outstanding bonds, either at their earliest or any subsequent
redemption date or upon the purchase or retirement at the maturity
thereof and may, pending such application, be placed in escrow, to be
applied to such purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption on
such date as may be determined by the local agency.
(c) Pending use for purchase, retirement at maturity, or
redemption of outstanding bonds, any proceeds held in escrow pursuant
to subdivision (b) may be invested and reinvested as provided in the
resolution authorizing the issuance of the bonds. Any interest or
other increment earned or realized on any such investment may also be
applied to the payment of the outstanding bonds to be refunded.
After the terms of the escrow have been fully satisfied and carried
out, any balance of such proceeds and any interest or increment
earned or realized from the investment thereof may be returned to the
local agency to be used by it for any lawful purpose.
(d) That portion of the proceeds of any such bonds designated for
the purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of additional
historical rehabilitation pursuant to subdivision (a) may be invested
and reinvested in obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United
States of America or in certificates of deposit or time deposits
secured by obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States of
America, maturing not later than the time or times when such proceeds
will be needed for the purpose of paying all or any part of such
cost.
(e) All bonds issued pursuant to this section shall be subject to
the provisions of this part in the same manner and to the same extent
as other bonds issued pursuant to this part.
