. (a) Following formation of the benefit district or
concurrently therewith, if the board deems it necessary to incur a
bonded indebtedness for the acquisition, construction, development,
joint development, completion, operation, maintenance, or repair of
one or more rail transit stations and related rail transit facilities
located within the benefit district, the board may provide, by
resolution, that the bonded indebtedness shall be payable from
special benefit assessments levied within the benefit district. The
resolution shall be adopted by a two-thirds vote of the members of
the board, and shall declare and state all of the following:
(1) That the board intends to incur an indebtedness, by the issuance of bonds of the district, for the benefit district which the board has formed, or intends to form, within a portion of the district.
(2) The purposes for which the proposed debt is to be incurred, which may include all costs and estimated costs necessary or convenient for, incidental to, or connected with the accomplishment of the purposes, including, without limitation, engineering, inspection, legal, fiscal agent, financial consultant, bond and other reserve funds, working capital, bond interest estimated to accrue during the construction period, if any, and for a period not exceeding three years thereafter, and the expenses of all proceedings for the authorization, issuance, and sale of the bonds.
(3) The estimated cost of accomplishing the purposes and the amount of the principal of the indebtedness to be incurred.
(4) That a general description of the benefit district and of each zone, if any, therein and maps showing the exterior boundaries thereof are on file with the secretary of the district and available for inspection by any interested person.
(5) That special benefit assessments for the payment of the bonds, and the interest thereon, have been or shall be levied in the benefit district or zones therein by the parcel area of unimproved real property and by the parcel area and the floor area of real property and improvements thereto of improved real property, as deemed appropriate by a resolution adopted by a two-thirds vote of the members of the board, at rates which are sufficient in the aggregate, together with revenues already collected and available therefor, to pay the principal of, and interest on, all bonds of the district issued for the benefit district.
(6) The extent to which, if at all, all or a portion of the revenues of the district are to be used to pay the principal of, interest on, and sinking fund payments for, the bonds, including the establishment and maintenance of any reserve fund therefor.
(7) The time and place set for hearing on the proposed issuance of the bonds.
(8) That at the same time as the Board of Supervisors of the County of Los Angeles is required by law to fix the general tax levy and in the manner provided for the general tax levy, the district board shall levy and collect special benefit assessments in the benefit district or zones therein by the parcel area of unimproved real property and by the parcel area and the floor area of real property and improvements thereto of improved real property, as deemed appropriate by the district board, at rates which are sufficient in the aggregate, together with revenues already collected and available therefor, to pay the interest on the bonds as it becomes due, and the part of the principal of the bonds, including sinking fund installments required by any of the district's agreements with bondholdlers, as will become due before proceeds of a special benefit assessment, levied at the time of the next general tax levy, will be available for those purposes; and to provide or to restore the bond reserve fund to the amount required by any of the district's agreements with bondholders.
(9) The maximum term the proposed bonds shall run before maturity, which shall not exceed 40 years from the date of the bonds or any series thereof.
(10) The maximum rate or rates of interest to be paid, which shall not exceed 12 percent per annum.
(11) That the pledge of special benefit assessment revenues to the bonds authorized by this section has priority over the use of any of those revenues for pay-as-you-go financing, except to the extent that this priority is expressly restricted by any of the district's agreements with bondholders.
(b) The notice stating the time and place of the hearing on the proposed issuance of bonds shall be published prior to the time fixed for the hearing pursuant to Section 6066 of the Government Code.
