§ 6-62-309 — Bonds or notes - Liability

(a) The bonds or notes shall be general obligations only of the board of trustees, and in no event shall they be considered a debt for which the faith and credit of the State of Arkansas or any of its revenues are pledged. (b) No member of any board shall be personally liable for the notes or bonds, or for any damages sustained by anyone in connection with contracts for loans or the construction of the buildings, unless it shall be made to appear that he or she has acted with a corrupt intent. (c) Upon a determination of the board that a reallocation of resources is necessary for the purposes of preventing a default on its indebtedness, the board has specific authority to transfer funds between and among campuses, divisions, and other budgetary units of its institution of higher education. Upon exercising the authority to reallocate resources as provided by this section, the board of trustees shall report the reasons for and the details of such reallocations to the Legislative Council or Joint Budget Committee immediately thereafter.
