13410. Applications for construction loans under this chapter shall
include:
(a) A description of the proposed facilities.
(b) A statement of facts showing the necessity for the proposed

available for financing such facilities and that the sale of revenue
or general obligation bonds through private financial institutions is
impossible or would impose an unreasonable burden on the public
agency.
(c) A proposed plan for repaying the loan.
(d) Other information as required by the state board.
13411. Upon a determination by the state board, after consultation
with the State Department of Health, that (a) the facilities proposed
by an applicant are necessary to the health or welfare of the
inhabitants of the state, (b) that the proposed facilities meet the

available for financing such facilities and that the sale of revenue
or general obligation bonds through private financial institutions is
impossible or would impose an unreasonable burden on the public
agency, (d) that the proposed plan for repayment is feasible, (e) in

proposed under Section 13400(c)(3) that such facilities are a cost
effective means of conserving water, the state board, subject to
approval by the Director of Finance, may loan to the applicant such
sum as it determines is not otherwise available to the public agency
to construct the proposed facilities.
13412. No loan shall be made to a public agency unless it executes

halted by order of the State Department of Health or a local health
department, or both, or notice has been given that such an order is
being considered; provided, however, that the public agencies

agency shall hold an election on the proposition of whether or not
the public agency shall enter into the proposed contract and more
than 50 percent of the votes cast at such election must be in favor
of such proposition.
13417. The election shall be held in accordance with the following
provisions:
(a) The procedure for holding an election on the incurring of
bonded indebtedness by such public agency shall be utilized for an
election of the proposed contract as nearly as the same may be
applicable. Where the law applicable to such agency does not contain
such bond election procedure, the procedure set forth in the Revenue
Bond Law of 1941 (Chapter 6 (commencing with Section 54300) Part 1,
Division 2, Title 5 of the Government Code), as it may now or
hereafter be amended, shall be utilized as nearly as the same may be
applicable.
(b) No particular form of ballot is required.

(e) The election shall be held in the entire public agency except
where the public agency proposes to contract with the state board on
behalf of a specified portion, or of specified portions of the public
agency, in which case the election shall be held in such portion or
portions of the public agency only.
13418. Notwithstanding any provision of this chapter or any other

of Finance, to the percentage of property tax revenues lost to the
agency by reason of the adoption of Article XIII A of the California
Constitution, unless moneys are otherwise available for such
repayment from state allocations or the sale of bonds authorized on
