Section 170076 Of Chapter 3. Powers And Duties From California Public Utilities Code >> Division 17. >> Chapter 3.
170076
. (a) The authority may borrow money in anticipation of the
sale of any bonds that have been authorized to be issued, but have
not been sold and delivered, and may issue negotiable bond
anticipation notes therefor, and may renew the bond anticipation
notes from time to time, but the maximum maturity of any bond
anticipation notes, including the renewals thereof, may not exceed
five years from the date of delivery of the original bond
anticipation notes. The bond anticipation notes may be paid from any
money of the authority available therefor and not otherwise pledged.
(b) If not previously otherwise paid, the bond anticipation notes
shall be paid from the proceeds of the next sale of the bonds of the
authority in anticipation of which they were issued. The bond
anticipation notes may not be issued in any amount in excess of the
aggregate amount of bonds that the authority has been authorized to
issue, less the amount of any bonds of the authorized issue
previously sold, and also less the amount of other bond anticipation
notes therefore issued and then outstanding. The bond anticipation
notes shall be issued and sold in the same manner as the bonds. The
bond anticipation notes and the resolution or resolutions authorizing
them may contain any provisions, conditions, or limitations that a
resolution of the authority authorizing the issuance of bonds may
contain.
(c) Exclusively for the purpose of securing financing or
refinancing for any of the purposes permitted by this division
through the issuance of bonds, notes, or other obligations, including
certificates of participation, by a joint powers authority, and,
notwithstanding any other provision contained in this division or any
other law, the authority may borrow money or purchase or lease
property from a joint powers authority and, in connection therewith,
may sell or lease property to the joint powers authority, in each
case at the interest rate or rates, maturity date or dates,
installment payment or rental provisions, security, pledge of
revenues and other assets, covenants to increase rates and charges,
default, remedy and other terms or provisions as may be specified in
the installment sale, lease, loan, loan purchase, or other agreement
or agreements between the authority and the joint powers authority.
The authority may enter into any liquidity or credit agreement it may
deem necessary or appropriate in connection with any financing or
refinancing authorized by this section. This section provides a
complete, additional and alternative method of performing the acts
authorized by this section, and the borrowing of money, incurring
indebtedness, sale, purchase or lease of property from or to a joint
powers authority, and any agreement for liquidity or credit
enhancement entered into in connection therewith, pursuant to this
section need not comply with the requirements of any other law
applicable to borrowing, incurring indebtedness, sale, purchase,
lease or credit except for compliance with this section.
