Part 5ISSUANCE OF BONDS
Section § 8620
Once an assessment is confirmed by the governing body, and the contractor has filed the statement of payments received if it's under the Improvement Act of 1911, or 30 days after recording the assessment under other improvement laws like the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913, the street superintendent must give a list of unpaid assessments to the treasurer.
Section § 8621
This law means that it's the treasurer's job to figure out which assessments haven't been paid and to calculate the total amount that is unpaid.
Section § 8622
This law section states that the treasurer or legislative body, depending on the act under which an assessment was levied, is responsible for deciding the specific amounts of the bonds issued for municipal improvements. These amounts are meant to be convenient but don't have to be identical to each other.
Section § 8623
This law explains what happens to bonds related to certain improvement assessments. If the assessment was made under the Improvement Act of 1911, the bonds are given directly to the contractor or whoever the contractor assigns, as payment for what's owed. If the assessment was made under the Municipal Improvement Act of 1913 or another law, the bonds must be sold according to a method chosen by the city's legislative body.
Section § 8624
If there's a cost incurred for minor or additional expenses related to a project, that cost should be accounted for in the overall assessment calculation.
Section § 8625
If there is a legal issue preventing bonds from being issued based on certain unpaid assessments, this law allows bonds linked to other unaffected unpaid assessments to be issued without delay. Essentially, the problematic bonds do not hold up the entire process.
Section § 8626
This law explains what to do with the money from selling bonds that were issued to cover specific municipal improvements, like roads or parks. The money should go into a fund related to the improvement project the bonds were issued for. If the bonds sell for more than their face value, the extra money should go into another fund specified by different legal rules for financing the improvements.
