The investment may be made by purchase of the bonds or registered warrants or part thereof at the original sale or by purchase after they have been thus issued.

Section § 31338

Explanation
This law allows bonds or registered warrants, once purchased, to be sold at a later time. The money received from selling them can then be reinvested according to the same regulations.

Section § 31339

Explanation

This law requires that any bonds or registered warrants bought by a district and held must be sold at the right time so that the money from these sales can be used for the specific purposes originally intended when the money was first put into the district's treasury.

Sales of bonds or registered warrants purchased pursuant to this article and held shall be made in season so that the proceeds may be applied to the purposes for which the money with which the bonds or registered warrants were originally purchased was placed in the treasury of the district.
