The County Board of any such county availing itself of the provisions of Section 6-7001 shall adopt an ordinance describing in a general way the building or buildings, or addition or extension thereto, to be constructed, reconstructed, repaired, remodeled, extended, equipped or improved and the site or sites to be acquired. Such ordinance shall set out the estimated cost of such construction, reconstruction, repair, remodeling, extension, equipment, improvement or acquisition and fix the amount of revenue bonds proposed to be issued, the maturity, interest rate, and all details in respect thereof and may contain such provisions and covenants which shall be part of the contract between the county and the holders of such bonds as may be deemed necessary and advisable as to the operation, maintenance, and management of the hospital, the establishment and maintenance of sinking funds, reserve funds, and other special funds, including construction funds, the fixing and collecting of rents, fees and charges for the use of the facilities of the hospital sufficient to produce revenue adequate to maintain such funds and to pay the bonds at maturity and accruing interest thereon, the issuance thereafter of additional bonds payable from the revenues derived from the hospital, the kind and amount of insurance, including use and occupancy insurance, to be carried, the cost of which shall be payable only from the revenues derived from the hospital, and such other covenants deemed necessary or desirable to assure the successful operation and maintenance of the hospital and the prompt payment of the principal of interest upon the bonds so authorized. Revenue bonds issued under this Division shall be signed by the Chairman of the County Board and the County Clerk of the county and shall be payable from revenue derived from the operation of the public hospital. These bonds shall not in any event constitute an indebtedness of the county within the meaning of any constitutional provision or limitation. It shall be plainly written or printed on the face of each bond that the bond has been issued under the provisions of this Division, that the bond, including the interest thereon, is payable from the revenue pledged to the payment thereof, and that it does not constitute an indebtedness or obligation of the county within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation or provision. No holder of any such revenue bond has the right to compel any exercise of the taxing power of the county to pay such bond or interest thereon.
