project or part thereof to be defrayed by the levy and collection of assessments, or
if the bonds are issued after the levy of assessments, in an aggregate principal
amount not exceeding the aggregate amount of unpaid assessments pledged for
the payment of the bonds as provided in sections 32-11-501 (3) and 32-11-502 to 32-11-526 and elsewhere in this article, except as otherwise provided in sections 32-11-622 to 32-11-631.

assessment bonds at any time; but, any other provisions of this article
notwithstanding, if the board so contracts before it awards a construction contract
or otherwise contracts for acquiring or improving, or acquiring and improving, the
project, the board may terminate the contract to sell such securities if, before the
awarding of the construction contract or otherwise contracting for the acquisition
or improvement, or acquisition and improvement, of the project, the board
determines not to acquire or improve, or acquire and improve, the project, and if the
board has not elected to proceed under section 32-11-615 other than by
