• Title 30: PUBLIC BORROWING AND OBLIGATIONS
• Ch. 349: State

Text

1. Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2 to 5, inclusive, this section does not authorize the State to issue any state securities constituting a debt for the purpose of funding or refunding state securities constituting special obligations which do not constitute an indebtedness.
2. Any special obligation securities of the State pertaining to any project may be funded or refunded by general obligation securities pertaining to the project only if the State is authorized by law to issue those funding or refunding securities at the time of their issuance, even though the State was not so authorized to issue them at the time of the issuance of any such funded or refunded securities.
3. If the issuance of general obligation bonds to defray the cost of the project is conditioned upon their approval by the qualified electors of the State at a special, primary or general election, any general obligation securities pertaining to the project and creating an indebtedness, by funding or refunding special obligation securities or otherwise, may be issued only if the bonds have been so approved at a special, primary or general election in the manner provided by law.
4. If a debt limitation pertains to any general obligation bonds or other securities of the State constituting an indebtedness and relating to any project, no general obligation securities pertaining to the project and creating an indebtedness, by funding or refunding special obligation securities or otherwise (in contradistinction to funding or refunding bonds merely reevidencing an indebtedness formerly evidenced by the securities funded or refunded), may be issued in a principal amount exceeding that debt limitation.
5. No bonds of the State may be refunded by the issuance of its interim debentures, its notes or its warrants. No interim debentures of the State may be funded by the issuance of its notes or its warrants.
