The corporate authorities may issue bonds against the taxes levied, but the bonds shall be payable only out of the special tax when collected and out of the net revenue derived from the operation of the waterworks. These bonds shall be made to mature in as nearly as possible equal installments of $100, or multiples thereof. The first installment shall be payable one or 2 years from the date of issue, and the last installment within one year after the date of the last tax levy provided by the vote authorizing a levy. The bonds shall bear interest at a rate not to exceed the maximum rate authorized by the Bond Authorization Act, as amended at the time of the making of the contract, payable annually or semi-annually. They shall be sold for not less than par, or they may be paid out at not less than par for the construction, purchase, and/or enlargement of the waterworks. 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.
