payable solely from the fund established under section 18 of this
chapter, must be authorized by an ordinance of the fiscal body of the
unit, setting forth the terms and conditions of the bonds.
(b) The bonds may bear interest at any rate determined by the
ordinance, payable semiannually, and mature serially, either annually

period of years determined by the ordinance.

necessary and proper to protect the bondholders.

interest on them, except from the fund established under section 18 of
this chapter.
(e) The bonds are negotiable instruments.
(f) The bonds and the interest on them are exempt from all state,

issued by the unit are executed, and shall be sold in accordance with IC 5-1-11 or at a negotiated sale.

sold in accordance with IC 5-1-11 or at a negotiated sale.
