other law, the provisions of all ordinances, resolutions and other
proceedings in the issuance by the district of any bonds, bonds with
a pledge of revenues, bonds for improvement districts, revenue bonds,
equipment trust certificates, notes, or any and all evidences of
indebtedness or liability shall constitute a contract between the
district and the holders of such bonds, equipment trust certificates,
notes or evidences of indebtedness or liability and the provisions
thereof shall be enforceable against the district, any or all of its
successors or assigns, the state, any department of the state, or any
officer thereof, by mandamus or any other appropriate suit, action
or proceeding in law or in equity in any court of competent
jurisdiction. Nothing contained in this part or in any other law

therefrom, and it shall be the duty of the state or other successors
or assigns to provide for the payment of such bonded and other
indebtedness and liabilities. Except as may be otherwise provided in
the proceedings for the authorization, issuance and sale of any
revenue bonds, bonds secured by a pledge of revenues or bonds for
improvement districts secured by a pledge of revenues, revenues of
any kind or nature derived from any revenue-producing improvements,
works, facilities or property owned, operated or controlled by the
district shall be pledged, charged, assigned and have a lien thereon
for the payment of such bonds as long as the same are outstanding,
regardless of any change in ownership, operation or control of such
revenue-producing improvements, works, facilities or property and it
shall, in such later event or events, be the duty of the state or
other successors or assigns to continue to maintain and operate such
revenue-producing improvements, works, facilities or property as long
as bonds are outstanding.
