SECTION 43720-43747



43720.  The legislative body of any city, except a city and county,
may provide for the funding or refunding of outstanding indebtedness
pursuant to this article, if either of the following conditions
exist:
   (a) The city has an outstanding indebtedness evidenced by bonds,
warrants, notes or other evidences of indebtedness, or a judgment.
   (b) Any department, board, or special fund of the city has an
outstanding indebtedness evidenced by bonds, warrants, or notes or
other evidences of indebtedness, and such indebtedness has been
created for a purpose for which bonds of the city could have been
lawfully authorized and issued.


43721.  By a two-thirds vote of its number, the legislative body may
fund or refund the indebtedness at, after, or before maturity and
issue bonds of the city for the indebtedness.



43722.  The bonds shall be issued in denominations of not less than
one hundred dollars ($100) nor more than one thousand dollars
($1,000) each, have not more than 40 years to run, and bear a rate of
interest not to exceed 8 percent a year, payable semiannually.




43723.  The rate of interest during the entire term of the bonds
need not be the same but different rates may be fixed for one or more
interest payments.


43724.  The bonds shall be serial bonds, and not less than
one-fortieth of the principal and interest on all sums unpaid shall
be paid each year.


43725.  The legislative body may fix a date for the earliest
maturity of the principal of the bonds, not more than three years
from the date of the issue.


43726.  The bonds shall be payable in such money and at such places
as the legislative body designates in the bonds.



43727.  The bonds may be sold in the manner provided by the
legislative body, to the highest bidder, at such price that the
interest rate paid by the city, computed on the sale price, will not
exceed 8 percent a year, or may be exchanged for the outstanding
evidences of indebtedness pursuant to this article.



43728.  The proceeds of any sale for cash shall be placed in the
city treasury to the credit of the funding fund, and applied only to
refunding the indebtedness for which the bonds are issued.



43729.  Any proceeds of the refunding bonds remaining after the
indebtedness has been paid shall be deposited in the fund established
for the payment of principal and interest on the refunding bonds and
used only for the purpose of paying such principal or interest as it
matures.


43730.  At the time of making the general tax levy after incurring
the bonded indebtedness and annually thereafter until the bonds are
paid or until there is a sum in the treasury set apart for that
purpose sufficient to meet all payments of principal and interest on
the bonds as they become due, the legislative body shall levy and
collect a tax sufficient to pay the interest on the bonds and such
part of the principal as will become due before the proceeds of the
next general tax levy will be available.



43731.  If the earliest maturity of the refunding bonds is more than
one year after the date of issuance, the legislative body shall levy
and collect annually a tax sufficient to pay the interest as it
falls due and to constitute a sinking fund for payment of the
principal on or before maturity.



43732.  The taxes shall be levied and collected as other city taxes,
and are in addition to all other taxes. They shall be used only for
the payment of the bonds and interest.



43732.5.  (a) Prior to the issuance by a city of bonds pursuant to
this chapter, the legislative body may elect, by resolution, to
guarantee payment on outstanding bonds of the city issued pursuant to
this chapter in accordance with the following:
   (1) A city that elects to participate under this section shall
provide notice to the Controller of that election, which notice shall
include a schedule for the repayment of principal and interest on
the bonds, and identify a bond trustee appointed by the city for the
purposes of this section.
   (2) In the event that, for any reason, the amount of tax revenues
made available pursuant to this article for the payment of principal
and interest of the bonds will not be sufficient for that purpose at
the time payment on principal, interest, or both, is required as to
any one or more of those bonds, the city shall so notify the bond
trustee. The bond trustee shall immediately communicate that
information to the affected bondholder or bondholders and to the
Controller.
   (3) When the Controller receives notice from the trustee as
described in paragraph (2), or the amount of tax revenues made
available pursuant to this article for the payment of principal and
interest of the bonds is not sufficient for that purpose at the time
payment on principal, interest, or both, is required as to any one or
more of those bonds, the Controller shall make an apportionment to
the bond trustee in the amount of that required payment for the
purpose of making that payment. The Controller shall make that
payment only from moneys credited to the Motor Vehicle License Fee
Account in the Transportation Tax Fund to which that city is entitled
at that time under Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 11001) of Part
5 of Division 2 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, and shall
thereupon reduce, by the amount of the payment, the subsequent
allocation or allocations to which the county would otherwise be
entitled under that chapter.
   (4) A city shall be entitled to reimbursement, from tax revenues
collected pursuant to this article, in an amount equal to the amount
by which its allocation or allocations under Chapter 5 (commencing
with Section 11001) of Part 5 of Division 2 of the Revenue and
Taxation Code are reduced pursuant to subdivision (c).
   (b) This section shall not be construed to obligate the State of
California to make any payment to a city from the Motor Vehicle
License Fee Account in the Transportation Tax Fund in any amount or
pursuant to any particular allocation formula, or to make any other
payment to a city, including, but not limited to, any payment in
satisfaction of any debt or liability incurred or guaranteed by a
city in accordance with this section.



43733.  Bonds to fund or refund the indebtedness shall not be issued
unless authorized by the electors of the city voting at an election
to be called and held for that purpose, in either of the following
cases:
   (a) When the indebtedness is evidenced by warrants or by judgment
obtained for indebtedness or liability incurred by the city exceeding
the income and revenue provided for the year in which the
indebtedness or liability was incurred.
   (b) When the indebtedness is that of any department, board, or
special fund of the city, and has been incurred without submission of
the proposition of incurring the indebtedness to the city electors,
and without the assent of two-thirds of the electors voting at an
election held for that purpose.



43734.  The election shall be called and held pursuant to Article 1
of this chapter.



43735.  The ordinance calling the election shall recite the object
and purposes for which the bonded indebtedness is to be incurred.



43736.  When it is proposed to refund any outstanding bonded
indebtedness of a city upon terms which permit any number of the
refunding bonds to mature more than forty years from the time the
original indebtedness was incurred, the proposition of refunding the
indebtedness shall be submitted to the electors of the city at an
election held for that purpose, and the assent of two-thirds of the
electors voting at such election is necessary to authorize the
issuance of the refunding bonds. The election shall be called and
held in the manner of other elections under this article.



43737.  The proceeds from the sale of the bonds shall be applied by
the treasurer to the satisfaction of the judgment or the refunding of
the indebtedness for which the bonds were issued, or the bonds may
be exchanged at their par value for the evidences of indebtedness to
be refunded, at their par value.


43738.  If the refunding bonds are issued in whole or in part to
refund before maturity an indebtedness evidenced by bonds, notes, or
other evidences of indebtedness, which according to their terms are
subject to call or payment before maturity at a price in excess of
par, the refunding bonds may be exchanged at not less than their par
value for such other bonds, notes, or evidences at the price
specified therein for payment before maturity, subject to adjustment
of accrued interest to the date of exchange.



43740.  When sufficient money is in the funding fund to redeem one
or more outstanding past due bonds, warrants, judgments, notes, or
other evidences of indebtedness or to redeem one or more of the
outstanding bonds, warrants, notes, or other evidences of
indebtedness which are subject to call or payment before maturity,
and which are proposed to be funded or refunded, the treasurer shall
publish a notice that he is prepared to pay the bond, warrant,
judgment, note, or other evidence of indebtedness (giving its number,
if any). The notice shall be published once a week for two weeks in
a newspaper of general circulation published in the city, if there is
one. If the bond, warrant, judgment, note, or other evidence of
indebtedness is not presented for redemption within thirty days after
the first publication of the notice, the interest upon it ceases.



43741.  At the same time the treasurer shall deposit in the post
office a copy of the notice, enclosed in a sealed envelope, postage
prepaid, addressed to the registered owner of any such bond, warrant,
judgment, note or other evidence of indebtedness, registered
pursuant to law, whose address appears upon the record in the
treasurer's office. If the bond, warrant, judgment, note, or other
evidence of indebtedness is not presented within the time specified
in the notice, the interest upon it ceases, and the amount due shall
be set aside for the payment when it is presented.



43742.  If any bonds are authorized for funding or refunding before
maturity any obligations which by their terms are subject to call and
payment before maturity, and which specify the manner in which they
shall be called and paid, the call and payment of such obligations
shall be in the specified manner.


43743.  When any outstanding bonds, warrants, judgments, notes, or
other evidences of indebtedness are surrendered and paid, the
treasurer shall cancel them by endorsing on their faces the amount
for which they are received, "canceled," and the date of
cancellation.



43744.  The treasurer shall keep a record of bonds, warrants,
judgments, notes, or other evidences of indebtedness redeemed, and
report the redemptions to the city legislative body.



43745.  If the obligations were issued by, on account of, or
against, any department, board, or special fund of the city, he shall
make the report to such department, board, or officer having custody
of the special fund.


43746.  The report shall be made at least once a month, and shall be
accompanied by the bonds, warrants, judgments, or other evidences of
indebtedness which have been taken up and canceled.



43747.  Any money remaining in the funding fund, after all
outstanding bonds, warrants, judgments, notes, or other evidences of
indebtedness proposed to be refunded have been taken up and canceled,
shall be deposited in the fund established for the payment of
principal and interest on the refunding bonds and used only for
paying such principal or interest as they mature.
