to be acquired, constructed, or completed, by the district, in the
manner provided by the Revenue Bond Law of 1941 (Chapter 6
(commencing with Section 54300) of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of

Chapter 6 of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code
and the restrictions in that article, including, but not limited to,

the issuance of those bonds by resolution of its governing board
approved by a two-thirds vote of the board. The district is a local

"enterprise" as used in the Revenue Bond Law of 1941 shall, for all
purposes of this section, include transit equipment or facilities and
any and all additions and improvements thereto and all other

located on or adjacent to the former Fort Ord, except a project or
projects located entirely within the existing right-of-way of State
Highway Route 1 owned by the Department of Transportation or within
the existing right-of-way of the Monterey branch rail line owned by
the Transportation Agency of Monterey County. Bonds issued for the
acquisition of equipment shall be of a duration that does not exceed
the useful life of the equipment. Any revenues or other income,
receipts, or amounts made available to the district, including, but
not limited to, the proceeds of a transactions and use tax, shall be
deemed revenues of the enterprise for purposes of the Revenue Bond
Law of 1941. Nothing in this article shall prevent the district from
availing itself of, or making use of, any procedure provided in this
part for the issuance of bonds of any type or character for any
enterprise authorized under this part, and all proceedings may be
carried on simultaneously or in the alternative, as the board may
determine. As used in this section, "equipment" includes "vehicles."
