Form of borrowing

(1)

Upon the conditions and under the circumstances set forth in this part 5, a district, to carry out the purposes of this part 5, from time to time may borrow money to defray the cost of any project, or any part thereof, as the board may determine, and issue the following securities to evidence such borrowing: Debentures, warrants, bonds, interim receipts, temporary certificates, temporary bonds, and notes.

(2)

A district is authorized to borrow money without an election in anticipation of taxes or other revenues, or both, and to issue debentures to evidence the amount so borrowed.

(3)

A district is authorized to defray the cost of any services, supplies, equipment, or other materials furnished to or for the benefit of the district by the issuance of warrants to evidence the amount due therefor, without an election, in anticipation of taxes or other revenues, or both.

(4)

Debentures and warrants may mature at such time or times not exceeding five years from the date of their issuance as the board may determine. They shall not be extended or funded except by the issuance of bonds or notes in compliance with subsection (5) or (7) of this section.

(5)

A district is authorized to borrow money in anticipation of taxes or other revenues, or both, and to issue bonds to evidence the amount so borrowed. With the exception of a district that qualifies as an enterprise in accordance with section 20 (2)(d) of article X of the state constitution, no bonded indebtedness shall be created by a district, without first submitting a proposition of issuing such bonds, and the maximum net effective interest rate at which such bonds may be issued, to the electors of the district and being approved, at an election held for that purpose, in accordance with section 32-4-518. Bonds so authorized may be issued in one series or more and may mature at such time or times not exceeding forty years from their issuance as the board may determine.

(6)

A district is authorized to issue interim receipts or temporary certificates or temporary bonds, pending preparation of definitive bonds and exchangeable for the definitive bonds when prepared, as the board may determine. Each holder of any such temporary security shall have all the rights and remedies which he would have as a holder of the definitive bonds.

(7)

A district is authorized to borrow money and to issue notes evidencing “construction” or short-term loans for the acquisition or improvement and equipment of a sewage disposal system or any project in supplementation of long-term financing and the issuance of bonds, as provided in section 32-4-535 and elsewhere in this part 5.

(8)

Nothing in this part 5 shall be construed as creating or authorizing the creation of an indebtedness on the part of any municipality included in the district.
