SECTION 11750-11755
11750. Bonds may be issued and sold from time to time and in such amounts as may be deemed necessary in the judgment of the department to provide sufficient funds for the purposes authorized by this chapter. 11751. Bonds may be sold below the par or face value thereof, but the sale price shall not be less than 94 percent of the par or face value of the bonds, and the sale price shall include the interest which has accrued thereon up to the date of delivery of the bonds. 11752. Successive issues of bonds shall have equal preference with respect to the redemption thereof and the payment of interest thereon, but the department may fix different maturity dates serially or otherwise for successive issues. 11753. All bonds issued are negotiable instruments. 11754. All bonds authorized for issuance by the department shall be sold by the Treasurer at public sale by bid or at private sale by negotiation, as directed by the department after consultation with the Treasurer. If the bonds are to be sold by a negotiated sale, the Treasurer shall select the underwriter or underwriters after consultation with the department. 11755. The department may borrow money in anticipation of the sale of bonds duly authorized to be issued, but which have not yet been sold and delivered, and for that purpose may issue negotiable bond anticipation bonds and may renew such bond anticipation bonds from time to time, but the maximum maturity of any such bond anticipation bonds, including the renewals thereof, shall not exceed five years from the date of the original bond anticipation bonds. Such bond anticipation bonds may be issued at public or private sale. The department may provide, by resolution, for issuance at such maturities, interest rates, in such form, and under such other terms and conditions as the department, in its discretion, may determine. The proceeds from the sale of such bond anticipation bonds shall be used only for the purposes for which may be used the proceeds of the sale of bonds in anticipation whereof they were issued. Such bond anticipation bonds shall not be issued in an amount in excess of the aggregate amount of bonds authorized to be issued, less the amount of any of such authorized bonds previously sold, and also less the amount of other bond anticipation bonds issued in anticipation thereof and then outstanding. The principal of such bond anticipation bonds may be paid from any moneys available therefor and not otherwise pledged. If such bond anticipation bonds, or any portion thereof, have not been previously paid, they shall be paid from the proceeds of the next sale of bonds in anticipation whereof they were issued. Interest on such bond anticipation bonds shall be payable from the same funds from which the interest on the bonds in anticipation whereof they were issued is payable. Interest on the bond anticipation bonds may be paid out of proceeds thereof.
