(a) Limited tax bonds shall be issued pursuant to a resolution adopted at any time, and from time to time, by the commission by a two-thirds vote of all members of the commission. Each resolution shall provide for the issuance of bonds in amounts as the necessity therefor may appear, until the full amount of the bonds authorized shall have been issued. The full amount of bonds may be divided into two or more series and different dates of payment fixed for the bonds of each series. A bond need not mature on its anniversary date.
(b) A resolution providing for the issuance of bonds shall state all of the following:
(1) The purposes for which the proposed debt is to be incurred, which may include all costs and estimated costs incidental to or connected with the accomplishment of those purposes, including, without limitation, engineering, inspection, legal, fiscal agents, financial consultant and other fees, bond and other reserve funds, working capital, bond interest estimated to accrue during the construction period and for a period not to exceed three years thereafter, and expenses of all proceedings for the authorization, issuance, and sale of the bonds.
(2) The estimated cost of accomplishing the purposes.
(3) The amount of the principal of the indebtedness.
(4) The maximum term the bonds, proposed to be issued, shall run before maturity, which shall not exceed 31 years from the date thereof or the date of each series thereof.
(5) The maximum rate of interest to be paid, which shall not exceed the maximum interest rate specified from time to time in Section 53531 of the Government Code, without regard to any other limitation.
(6) The denomination or denominations of the bonds, which shall not be less than five thousand dollars ($5,000).
(7) A pledge of retail transactions and use taxes to the limited tax bonds, either before or after giving effect to the payment of maintenance and operations expenses as defined by the commission in the resolution, and a statement that the bonds shall have priority over the use of any of the funds for "pay-as-you-go" financing except to the extent that the priority is expressly restricted in the resolution. However, the resolution shall not provide for the pledge of retail transactions and use taxes that have been allocated to the county or any city therein pursuant to Section 26298.20, except to the extent that the proceeds of any limited tax bonds are to be so allocated in lieu of those retail transactions and use taxes.
(8) The form of the bonds, including, without limitation, registered bonds and coupon bonds, to the extent permitted by federal law, and the form of any coupons to be attached thereto, the registration, conversion, and exchange privileges, if any, pertaining thereto, and the time when the whole or any part of the principal shall become due and payable.
(c) The resolution may also contain any other matters authorized by this article or any other law.
