SECTION 52750-52760
52750. When the sinking fund contains at least ten thousand dollars ($10,000), the county treasurer shall, upon request of the board, by notice published once a week for two successive weeks in some newspaper published in the county where the office of the district is located and, in its discretion, in any other newspaper, invite sealed proposals for the sale to the district of any of its outstanding bonds or refunding bonds secured by the assessment out of which the sinking fund was created. 52751. The notice shall state the amount available for the redemption of bonds or refunding bonds and shall specify when and where the proposals will be opened. 52752. All proposals shall be opened at the office of the county treasurer at an open meeting of the board convened at the time specified in the notice or at some subsequent time to which the meeting is adjourned. 52753. Any or all proposals may be rejected by the county treasurer, and shall be rejected by him if requested to do so in writing by a majority of the board. 52754. If no bids are received, or if the bids accepted are not sufficient to exhaust the money available for the purchase of outstanding bonds or refunding bonds, the county treasurer may, with the written assent of at least two members of the board, purchase at private sale with available money in the sinking fund, any of the refunding bonds for the payment of which the sinking fund was created. 52755. No proposal to sell bonds to the district at a price in excess of the par value thereof shall be accepted. 52756. All bonds purchased with sinking fund moneys shall forthwith be canceled. 52757. The board may, by resolution adopted prior to the time of issuing any refunding bonds, provide for the call and redemption thereof, in numerical order, or by lot, as prescribed in the resolution, on any interest payment date prior to their fixed maturity, at not exceeding the par value thereof and accrued interest, in which event a statement to that effect shall appear on the face of the refunding bond. 52758. Notice of redemption of callable refunding bonds shall be published once a week for three successive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation printed and published in the principal county. 52759. The first publication of the notice shall be not less than 30 days nor more than 90 days prior to the date fixed in the refunding bonds for the redemption. 52760. Interest on refunding bonds declared to be callable shall cease after the date fixed for redemption if the district has provided funds for the payment of the principal and interest thereof.
