103360
. (a) Limited tax bonds shall be issued pursuant to a
resolution adopted at any time, and from time to time, by the
district by a two-thirds vote of all members of the board of the
district.
(b) The district may, from time to time, issue 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), for the purposes set forth in Section 103282, which shall
constitute an "enterprise" within the meaning of Section 54309 of the
Government Code, and the proceeds of the retail transactions and use
tax shall constitute "revenues" within the meaning of Section 54315
of the Government Code. Article 3 (commencing with Section 54380) of
Chapter 6 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code
and the limitations set forth in subdivision (b) of Section 54402 and
in Sections 54403 and 54418 of the Government Code do not apply to
the issuance and sale of bonds pursuant to this article. Instead, the
district shall authorize the issuance of bonds by resolution, which
resolution shall specify all of the following:
(1) The purposes for which the bonds are to be issued, which may
be general.
(2) The maximum principal amount of the bonds.
(3) The maximum term for the bonds.
(4) The maximum rate of interest to be payable upon the bonds,
which shall not exceed the maximum rate permitted for bonds of the
district by Section 53531 of the Government Code or any other
applicable provisions of law. In the case of bonds bearing a variable
interest rate, the variable rate shall on no day exceed the maximum
rate permitted for bonds of the district on that day by Section 53531
of the Government Code or any other applicable provisions of law.
However, the variable interest rate so permitted may on any day
exceed that maximum rate if the interest paid on the bonds from their
date of original issuance on that day does not exceed the total
interest which would have been permitted to have been paid on the
bonds if the bonds had borne interest at all times from the date of
issuance to that day at the maximum rate permitted from time to time
by Section 53531 of the Government Code or any other applicable
provisions of law.
(5) The maximum discount or premium on the sale of bonds. The
bonds may be sold at less or more than the principal amount thereof
in the manner and to the extent determined by the district.
(c) For purposes of the issuance and sale of bonds pursuant to
this article, the following definitions are applicable to the Revenue
Bond Law of 1941:
(1) "Resolution" means, unless the context otherwise requires, the
instrument providing the terms and conditions for the issuance of
the limited tax bonds, and may be an indenture, resolution,
ordinance, order, agreement, or other instrument in writing.
(2) "Fiscal agent" means any fiscal agent, trustee, paying agent,
depository, or other fiduciary provided for in the resolution
authorizing the issuance of the bonds, which fiscal agent may be
located within or without the state.
(d) Each resolution shall provide for the issuance of bonds in the
amounts as may be necessary, until the full amount of the bonds
authorized has been issued. The full amount of bonds may be divided
into two or more series with different dates of payment fixed for the
bonds of each series. A bond need not mature on its anniversary
date.
