An agency may issue bonds on which the principal and <br>interest are payable: <br>(a) Exclusively from the income and revenues, including the increment of tax revenues as allowed by law, of the project or projects financed from the <br>proceeds of such bonds; or (b) Exclusively from such income and revenues together with grants and contributions from the federal, state, city, or urban-county government, or <br>other sources. Any such bonds may be additionally secured by a mortgage, <br>deed of trust, or other lien or encumbrance on the property, including pledges <br>of tax increments as allowed by law in the project or projects financed from <br>the proceeds of such bonds. (2) Neither the members of the board of commissioners of an agency nor any person executing the bonds shall be liable personally on the bonds by reason of the <br>issuance thereof. The bonds and other obligations of an agency shall so state on <br>their face that such bonds and obligations issued under this section shall not be a <br>debt of the city, the county, the state, or any political subdivision thereof within the <br>meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation or restriction and neither <br>the city, the county, the state, nor any political subdivision thereof shall be liable <br>thereon, nor, in any event, shall such bonds or obligations be payable out of any <br>funds or properties other than those of said agency, except as provided by contract. (3) Bonds of an agency shall be authorized by resolution of its board of commissioners. Such bonds may be issued in one (1) or more series, each of which may be <br>separately secured, and shall bear such date or dates, mature at such time or times, <br>bear interest at such rate or rates, be in such denomination or denominations, be in <br>such form either coupon or registered, carry such conversion or registration <br>privileges, have such rank or priority, be executed in such manner, be payable in <br>such medium of payment, at such place or places, and be subject to such terms of <br>redemption, with or without premium, as such resolution, its trust indenture or <br>mortgage may provide. (4) The bonds may be sold at less than par, and shall be sold at public sale held after notice has been given by publication pursuant to KRS Chapter 424, except as <br>follows: <br>(a) Bonds may be sold at private sale without advertisement to the federal, state or urban-county governments, or to an agency of any such governments; (b) Payment for any portion of a project area may be made in bonds, provided, however, that: 1. Any such transaction shall be approved by the price advisory council <br>before its consummation; 2. Such exchange is valid and legal pursuant to regulations of the Internal <br>Revenue Service. (5) The bonds may be sold with provision that they bear no interest, or only nominal interest, for a period of years, after which they may bear greater interest; and <br>provision may be made for the capitalization of interest for periods not in excess of <br>five (5) years. More than one (1) project may be established within the same project <br>area, and each such project may be financed with a different issue or bonds with <br>differing security. Each of said bond issues may be designed to meet standards <br>required under federal statutes or regulations pertaining to the issuance of tax-<br>exempt bonds; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit <br>the issuance of any series of bonds, the interest on which may not be exempt from <br>federal income tax. (6) In case any of the members or officers of the agency whose signatures appear on any bonds, coupons, notes, or other obligations shall cease to be such members or <br>officers before the delivery of such bonds, coupons, notes, or other obligations, such <br>signatures shall, nevertheless, be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if <br>they had remained in office until such delivery. Any provision of any law to the <br>contrary notwithstanding, any bonds, coupons, notes, or other obligations issued <br>pursuant to KRS 99.610 to 99.680 shall be fully negotiable except as limited by <br>their terms. (7) In any suit, action, or proceedings involving the validity or enforceability of any bonds of an agency or the security therefor, any such bonds reciting in substance <br>that they have been issued by the agency to aid in financing a project shall be <br>conclusively deemed to have been issued for a project and said project shall be <br>conclusively deemed to have been planned, approved, located, and carried out in <br>accordance with the purposes and provisions of KRS 99.610 to 99.680. (8) In connection with the issuance of bonds, an agency, in addition to its other powers, shall have power: <br>(a) To pledge all or any part of its gross or net revenue to which its right then exists or may thereafter come into existence; (b) To encumber, by mortgage, deed of trust, or otherwise, all or any part of its real or personal property in the project; (c) To covenant against pledging all or any part of its revenues, or against encumbering all or any part of its real or personal property, to which its right <br>or title then exists or may thereafter come into existence or against permitting <br>or suffering any lien on such revenues or property; to covenant with respect to <br>its sale, leasing, or other disposition of any project or any part thereof; and to <br>covenant as to what other, or additional debts or obligations may be incurred <br>by it; (d) To covenant as to the bonds to be issued and as to the issuance of such bonds in escrow or otherwise, and as to the use and disposition of the proceeds <br>thereof; to provide for the replacement of lost, destroyed, or mutilated bonds, <br>to covenant against extending the time for the payment of its bonds or interest thereon; and to redeem the bonds, and to covenant for their redemption and to <br>provide the terms and conditions thereof; (e) To covenant as to the amounts to be charged in the sale or lease of properties in a project or projects, the amount to be raised from revenue each year or <br>other period of time and as to the use and disposition to be made thereof; to <br>create or to authorize the creation of special funds for moneys held for <br>development or other costs, debt service, reserves, or other purposes, and to <br>covenant as to the use and disposition of the money held in such funds; (f) To prescribe the procedure, if any, by which the terms of any contract with bondholders may be amended or abrogated, the amount of bonds the holders <br>of which must consent thereto and the manner in which such consent may be <br>given; (g) To covenant as to the use of any or all of its real or personal property; and to covenant as to the maintenance of its real and personal property, the <br>replacement thereof, the insurance to be carried thereon, and the use and <br>disposition of insurance moneys; (h) To covenant as to the rights, liabilities, powers, and duties arising upon the breach of any covenant, condition, or obligation; and to covenant and <br>prescribe as to events of default and terms and conditions upon which any or <br>all of its bonds or obligations shall become or may be declared due before <br>maturity, and as to the terms and conditions upon which such declaration and <br>its consequences may be waived; (i) To vest in a trustee or trustees or the holders of bonds or any proportion of them the right to enforce the payment of the bonds or trustees the right, in the <br>event of a default by said agency, to take possession of any project or part <br>thereof, and to collect the rents and revenues arising therefrom, or due the <br>agency in connection therewith, and to dispose of such moneys in accordance <br>with the agreement of the agency with said trustee; to provide for the powers <br>and duties of a trustee or trustees and to limit the liabilities thereof; and to <br>provide the terms and conditions upon which the trustee or trustees or the <br>holders of bonds or any proportion of them may enforce any covenant or <br>rights securing or relating to the bonds; (j) To exercise all or any part or combination of the powers herein granted; to make covenants other than and in addition to the covenants herein expressly <br>authorized of like or different character; to make such covenants and to do any <br>and all such acts and things as may be necessary or convenient or desirable in <br>order to secure its bonds, or, in the discretion of said agency, except as <br>otherwise provided in KRS 99.610 to 99.680, as will tend to make the bonds <br>more marketable notwithstanding that such covenants, acts, or things may not <br>be enumerated herein.
