§ 11-49A-12 — Statutory Mortgage Lien; Creation; Filing of Notice

Any resolution of the board or trust indenture under which bonds may be issued pursuant to the provisions of this chapter may contain provisions creating a statutory mortgage lien, in favor of the holders of such bonds and of the interest coupons applicable thereto, on the transit systems, or any thereof (including any after-acquired property) out of the revenues from which such bonds are made payable. The said resolution of the board or the said trust indenture may provide for the filing for record in the office of the judge of probate of each county in which any part of such transit system, or any thereof, may be located of a notice containing a brief description of such systems, a brief description of such bonds, and a declaration that said statutory mortgage lien has been created for the benefit of the holders of such bonds and the interest coupons applicable thereto, upon such systems, including any additions thereto and extensions thereof. Each judge of probate shall receive, record and index any such notice filed for record in his office. The recording of such notice, as herein provided, shall operate as constructive notice of the contents thereof.
