structures, rights, or any other property necessary or convenient for
the recovery of resources from solid waste or for the collection,
treatment, or disposition of sewage matter for the special district
may be submitted.
Except as otherwise provided herein the provisions of
Chapter 7 shall substantially govern as to all matters pertaining to
the issuance of bonds under this article, including among other
things, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
calling and holding of the bond election, the form, execution,

(commencing with Section 13345) to authorize emergency financing of
the repair or replacement of damaged or demolished works of the
special district; provided, that the payment of the principal and
interest on such bonds or evidences of indebtedness shall be made
only from revenues, taxes, or other available funds, of the special
