The corporate authorities of every municipality which acquires or constructs an airport or landing field as provided in Section 11-103-1 may issue the municipality's negotiable bonds for the purpose of purchasing any existing claims or liens against the fee of the property on which the airport or landing field is located. These bonds shall be issued for such denominations, maturable at such time, bearing such rate of interest, not in excess of the maximum rate authorized by the Bond Authorization Act, as amended at the time of the making of the contract, and payable at such place as the corporate authorities may determine. All bonds issued under this section shall be secured by the airport or landing field property and shall be payable solely from this property or the revenue derived from the operation or leasing of the airport, landing field, and facilities, or appurtenances thereof. These bonds shall not, in any event, constitute an indebtedness of the municipality within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation. Each bond shall plainly state on its face that it has been issued under the provisions of this section and that it does not constitute an indebtedness of the municipality within any constitutional or statutory limitation. With respect to instruments for the payment of money issued under this Section either before, on, or after the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1989, it is and always has been the intention of the General Assembly (i) that the Omnibus Bond Acts are and always have been supplementary grants of power to issue instruments in accordance with the Omnibus Bond Acts, regardless of any provision of this Act that may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts, (ii) that the provisions of this Section are not a limitation on the supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts, and (iii) that instruments issued under this Section within the supplementary authority granted by the Omnibus Bond Acts are not invalid because of any provision of this Act that may appear to be or to have been more restrictive than those Acts. The amendatory Acts of 1971, 1972 and 1973 are not a limit upon any municipality which is a home rule unit.
