§ 57-64-11. Issuance of bonds.

After receiving a certificate of public convenience and necessity from the MDA, the local government unit is empowered and authorized, from time to time, to issue bonds up to the maximum principal amount authorized in the certificate. After receiving a certificate of public convenience and necessity from the MDA, the governing body of any local government unit entering into an agreement pursuant to this chapter may incur bonded and floating indebtedness by issuing general obligation bonds, revenue bonds or special assessment bonds as authorized by any statute authorizing the issuance of such bonds,, and otherwise incur indebtedness in any manner for which the local government unit is authorized by statute to incur debt, and may appropriate funds for the purposes and in the manner prescribed by law without regard to whether the activities and improvements authorized by this chapter to be financed by such debt or appropriation are within or without the boundaries of the local government unit. Revenues derived from any project financed with bonds issued pursuant to this chapter may be pledged in whole or in part to secure payment of the bonded indebtedness incurred to finance the project. Such governing body may sell, lease, grant or otherwise supply goods and services to any other local government unit which is a party to the agreement or the administrative body or legal entity created to operate the joint or cooperative undertaking.
