Section § 74850

Explanation

This section explains that if at least two-thirds of the votes in a bond election are in favor, it's considered approved. This approval allows the government to take on debt and issue bonds for the amount and purpose specified in the proposal.

If two-thirds of the votes cast upon the proposition at the bond election are marked and counted “Bonds—Yes” or appear to favor the proposition submitted, the proposition shall be deemed to have been accepted by the voters and to authorize the incurring of a bonded debt and the issuance of bonds in the amount of and for the purpose stated in the proposition.

Section § 74851

Explanation

The board can give out bonds for the district to cover any part of the approved debt. They can keep issuing bonds as needed until the total authorized amount is reached. Each batch of bonds will have its own unique number or letter for identification.

The board may issue the bonds of the district for the whole or any part of the amount of the indebtedness authorized, and may, from time to time, provide for the issuance of such amounts as are necessary, until the full amount of the bonds authorized have been issued. Each separate issue shall be given a serial number or letter.

Section § 74852

Explanation

This section states that the board is responsible for deciding the design of bonds and any attached coupons through a resolution agreed upon by most of its members. They also set the schedule for when the bond's principal amount must be paid back. The board can delay the first payment for up to five years after the bond is issued.

The board shall, by a resolution adopted by a majority of its members, prescribe the form of the bonds and of the coupons attached thereto and fix the time when the whole or any part of the principal shall become due and payable. The payment of the first installment may be deferred for a period not longer than five years from the date of the bond.

Section § 74853

Explanation

This law states that certain bonds can have an interest rate of up to 8% per year, and this interest can be paid either once a year or twice a year. The details about how often the interest is paid are decided by the board when the bonds are issued.

The bonds shall bear interest at a rate not exceeding 8 percent per year, payable annually or semiannually as may be prescribed by the board at the time of the issuance of the bonds.

Section § 74854

Explanation

This law allows a board to decide if bonds can be redeemed before their official due date and at what price. However, a bond can only be redeemed early if it explicitly states this option on the bond itself.

The board may provide for redemption of bonds before maturity at prices determined by it. A bond shall not be subject to call or redemption prior to maturity unless it contains a recital to that effect.

Section § 74855

Explanation

This law says that the board has the authority to decide the size or value of the bonds that are issued.

The bonds shall be in such denominations as the board may prescribe.

Section § 74856

Explanation

The principal and interest shall be payable in lawful money of the United States at the office of the treasurer or such other place as may be designated or at either place at the option of the holder of the bond.
