§ 207-30 — Issuance of bonds

Bonds secured by the full faith and credit of the area included in the township special service area may be issued for providing the special services in an amount not to exceed the amount authorized by the voters at the referendum under Section 207-25 and not to be retired over a longer period of time than authorized at the referendum. Bonds, when so issued, shall be retired by the levy of ad valorem taxes against all of the taxable real property included in the township special service area as provided in the referendum establishing the township special service area and authorizing the issuance of the bonds. The county clerk shall annually extend ad valorem taxes against all of the taxable property situated in the county and contained in the special service area in amounts sufficient to pay maturing principal and interest of those bonds without limitation as to rate or amount and in addition to and in excess of any taxes that may now or hereafter be authorized to be levied by the township. Bonds issued pursuant to this Article shall not be regarded as indebtedness of the township for the purpose of any limitation imposed by any law. All bonds shall be issued in accordance with the provisions of the Local Government Debt Reform Act.
